Statement I: Suhana bakes a circular pie. Then she eats th of the pie. The resulting figure is shown on the right. There are 2 lines of symmetry in the remaining pie.
Statement II: If a figure is divided into two coincident parts by a line, then the figure is called symmetrical about that line.
Statement I is true but statement II is false.

Answer
Statement I is false. When of the circular pie is removed, the remaining pie has only 1 line of symmetry, i.e., the diagonal that bisects the removed quarter (passing through the centre and the corner of the missing portion).
Statement II is true. This is the standard definition of a line of symmetry — a line that divides a figure into two coincident (mirror image) parts.
∴ Option 2 is the correct option.
