All the lines of symmetry are marked with a yellow colour.

b)

Ans: 4. We can see that the image can be divided identically in horizontal, vertical, and in a cross. Therefore, the line of symmetry of the image is 4.

c)

Ans: 4. We can see that the image can be divided identically in horizontal, vertical, and in a cross. Therefore, the line of symmetry of the image is 4.

d)

Ans: 1. We can see that the image can be divided identically in horizontal, vertical, and in a cross. Therefore, the line of symmetry of the image is 1.

e)

Ans: 6. We can see that the image can be divided identically in horizontal, vertical, and in a cross. Therefore, the line of symmetry of the image is 6.

f)
