Answer 1

The correct response is: A parallelogram has two lines of reflection that carry it onto itself: one through each diagonal.

A parallelogram has reflectional symmetry across its two diagonals, meaning if you flip it over either diagonal, it will match up with itself. It does not have lines of symmetry through the midpoints of the top and bottom or horizontal through the midpoints of each side.
