Answer:

i just looked it up kk

Step-by-step explanation:

Not all lines that divide a figure into two congruent halves are lines of symmetry. The diagonal of a rectangle divides the rectangle into two triangles that are congruent (same size and shape). But the diagonal line is NOT a line of symmetry. ... The parallelogram, however, has NO lines of symmetry.

I think no, now all lines of symmetry are diagonals because it can also be horizontal and vertical.
Symmetry is also known as proportion; anything that is equal or proportion with each other.
Let’s have an example:
A square
=> in getting the symmetry of a square, we need to draw a 2 diagonal lines to each edges.
=> we can also draw 2 perpendicular lines that bisect to the edges of the square and it also provide an equal parts or proportional parts.
