Axis of symmetry (pp. 107,194) The axis of symmetry is the line that divides a figure into two parts that are mirror images.

Eje de simetría (pp. 107,194) El eje de simetría es la recta que divide una figura en dos partes que son imágenes una de la otra.
Example The graph of y equals x squared plus 2x minus 1 is an upward-opening parabola that falls through (negative 2, negative 1) to a vertex at (negative 1, negative 2), and then rises through (0, negative 1). The axis of symmetry is the graph of x equals negative 1. All values are approximate.
