  1. Made up of exactly similar parts facing each other or around an axis; showing symmetry

  1. having similarity in size, shape, and relative position of corresponding parts
  2. harmonious: exhibiting equivalence or correspondence among constituents of an entity or between different entities
  3. (symmetrically) in a symmetrical manner; "they were symmetrically arranged"
  4. (symmetry) (mathematics) an attribute of a shape or relation; exact reflection of form on opposite sides of a dividing line or plane
  5. (symmetry) balance among the parts of something
  6. (symmetry) isotropy: (physics) the property of being isotropic; having the same value when measured in different directions
  7. Symmetry (from Greek: "συμμετρεῖν" = to measure together), generally conveys two primary meanings. The first is an imprecise sense of harmonious or aesthetically pleasing proportionality and balance; For example, Aristotle ascribed spherical shape to the heavenly bodies, attributing this ...
  8. (Symmetry (biology)) Symmetry in biology is the balanced distribution of duplicate body parts or shapes. The body plans of most multicellular organisms exhibit some form of symmetry, either radial symmetry or bilateral symmetry or "spherical symmetry". ...
  9. (Symmetry (Dead Zone)) The following is a list of episodes from the USA Network original series The Dead Zone. The series debuted on June 16, 2002.
  10. (Symmetry (mathematics)) Symmetry occurs not only in geometry, but also in other branches of mathematics. It is actually the same as invariance: the property that something does not change under a set of transformations.
  11. (symmetry) Exact correspondence on either side of a dividing line, plane, center or axis; The satisfying arrangement of a balanced distribution of the elements of a whole
  12. (symmetrically) hands behave as in a mirror image, as in the sign SEPARATE
  13. (symmetry) The invariance of some properties of the object being investigated with respect to all the transformations considered.
  14. (Symmetry) A diamond's symmetry is the arrangement of the facets and finished angles, created by the diamond cutter. Excellent symmetry of a well-cut and well-proportioned diamond can have a great effect on the diamond's brilliance and fire. ...
  15. (Symmetry) is a condition in which a feature (or features) is symmetrically disposed about the center plane of a datum feature.
  16. (symmetry) the correspondence in size, form or arrangement of parts on a plane or line (line symmetry is where each point on one side of a line has a corresponding point on the opposite side, e.g. ...
  17. (symmetry) (sym'-me-try)  The correspondence in shape or length of elements in a crystal, such as similar crystal faces, that indicates the ordered internal arrangement of a crystalline substance, as though repeated by a mirror, rotation about an axis, or inversion through a point (center of ...
  18. (Symmetry) a.  If a figure can be folded along a line so that the two halves match exactly, then the figure has line symmetry.

  21. (Symmetry) The balance of a composition whereby the elements on both sides of an axis are the same size and shape.
  22. Labs grade symmetry from poor to excellent, based on the diamond's proportions and the relation of one facet to another (meet-point faceting).
  23. (Symmetry) Refers to variations in a diamond's symmetry. The small variations can include misalignment of facets or facets that fail to point correctly to the girdle (this misalignment is completely undetectable to the naked eye). ...
  24. (Symmetry) The exactness of placement and shaping of opposed facets and other portions of a diamond. Symmetry is judged on the basis of the degree to which these opposed features yield exact mirror images.
  25. (SYMMETRY) Property of an object if some spatial manipulation of it results in an indistinguishable object. A symmetric object can be superimposed on itself by some operation.
