Answer:

line of symmetry divides a figure in half. ... A rectangle cannot have a diagonal line of symmetry like a square because the sides are not the same length. If you fold this rectangle diagonally so that Corner A meets Corner D, the sides would not match. Try it with a piece of notebook paper!

Answer:

Because a rectangle is an irregular polygon as it's all sides are not equal.

It has a rotational symmetry due to which it has only 2 lines of symmetry: one vertical in the middle and one horizontal in the middle.

If we try to fold a rectangular sheet diagonally, they will not overlap each other completely. This shows that a rectangle can't have more than 2 symmetrical lines.
