Hey DJ,

Think mirror image when you look for symmetry.

"Symmetry is a characteristic feature of geometrical shapes, systems, equations, and other real or conceptual objects —typically, in which one half of the object appears to be a reflection (i.e., a "mirror") of the other half.

In formal terms, we say that an object is symmetric with respect to a given mathematical operation, if, when applied to the object, this operation does not change the object or its appearance. Two objects are symmetric to each other with respect to a given group of operations if one is obtained from the other by some of the operations (and vice versa).

Symmetries may also be found in living organisms including humans and other animals (see symmetry in biology below). In 2D geometry the main kinds of symmetry of interest are with respect to the basic Euclidean plane isometries: translations, rotations, reflections, and glide reflections."

If you take an image and cut it in half, then held a mirror at right angles at the cut to "make the image whole" and the resulting image looked the same as the original before the cut, that would be symmetrical. If it looked different, it would be asymmetrical. Symmetrical images are those whose features are the same around a central line or point.
