              Three planes of symmetry are parallel to the surfaces and six planes of symmetry are
              diagonals.










                       Quick Check

                    A cuboid has three planes of symmetry. Identify them in the following.
                    1.                                 2.                                   3.




                    4.                                 5.                                   6.








                      Get it right!

                  The plane  shown  alongside  cuts  the  cuboid  into two equal

                  halves, so it is a plane of symmetry.                                                         A
                  It is  not a plane  of symmetry because  the  vertex A of the
                                                                                                                   A'
                  cuboid  when  reflected across  the  plane,  the image, A', is not

                  mapped to the other half of the cuboid.
