Definition of Axis of Symmetry
An axis of symmetry is a line through the middle of a shape that acts like a mirror.
Each side of the shape should be a reflection of the other side in the axis of symmetry.
When you fold a shape in half along its axis of symmetry, the two halves should match up exactly.
