I don't see the trapezoid — can you upload the picture or describe it (which sides are parallel, are the non-parallel sides equal, and how it's oriented)?

Quick rule to use while you upload/describe:
- If the non‑parallel sides (legs) are equal in length (an isosceles trapezoid) and the shorter base is centered over the longer base, there is exactly one line of symmetry: a line perpendicular to the bases through their midpoints. If the bases are drawn horizontally this is a vertical line of symmetry.
- If the legs are not equal, there is no line of symmetry.
- “Horizontal” symmetry would mean top and bottom swap (rare for a trapezoid unless it’s a rectangle/parallelogram case).
- “Diagonal” symmetry would only occur if the trapezoid is drawn/rotated so the perpendicular symmetry axis is slanted; in that case the symmetry still exists but you would call it diagonal because of the picture’s orientation.

Send the image or a short description and I’ll pick the correct option.
