What is symmetry?
A
When both sides of art are different.
B
When both sides of art are the same.
C
When both sides are visually even but don’t have to be the same.
D
When opposite elements are put together.
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Symmetrical balance (or Symmetry) means that the work of art is the same on one side as the other, a mirror image of itself, onboth sides of a center line. Asymmetrical balance (or Asymmetry) means that the two halves of the work of art are different, however, try to create balance.

Detailed explanation-2: -Symmetrical balance is when both sides of a piece are equal; that is, they are identical or almost identical. Symmetrical balance can be established by drawing an imaginary line through the center of the work, either horizontally or vertically, and making each half identically or very visually similar.

Detailed explanation-3: -In the world of art, there are three types of symmetry you can apply-radial, mirror or bilateral and asymmetry.

Detailed explanation-4: -In symmetrical balance, the elements used on one side of the design are similar to those on the other side; in asymmetrical balance, the sides are different but still look balanced. In radial balance, the elements are arranged around a central point and may be similar.
