Consider the letters of English alphabets A to Z. List among them the letters which have
(a) vertical lines of symmetry (like A)
(b) horizontal lines of symmetry (like B)
(c) no lines of symmetry (like Q)

Solution:

We will be using the concepts of the line of symmetry to solve this.

Symmetry states that one shape is identical to the other shape when it is moved, rotated, or flipped.

(a) The following letters have vertical lines of symmetry: A, H, I, M, O, T, U, V, W, X, and Y.

(b) The following letters have horizontal lines of symmetry: B, C, D, E, H, I, K, O, and X.

(c) The following letters have no lines of symmetry: F, G, J, L, N, P, Q, R, S, and Z.
