What Letters Have Line Symmetry

Line symmetry in capital letters

It all depends on just how you lot draw your messages.  I'm using the Arial font, which is a san-serif font. Serifs are the little fancy bits on the ends of letters: Times is a serif font--f'southward have little lines at the bottom, and S'southward take piffling lines at the top and bottom, and A is thinner on the left side than the correct side.  Arial is a san serif font--all of those extra $.25 are missing in an Arial font--that makes the messages have more symmetry.  Even among san serif fonts, symmetry can exist slightly different, so my answers may be different from yours if I write my letters differently.

I see vertical line symmetry in the majuscule letters A, H, I, Grand, O, T, U, V, W, X and Y (some of these have other kinds of symmetry too!)

I see horizontal line symmetry in the captial letters B, C, D, E, H, I, O and X.  Really, even though I included B (and maybe you lot did too), B isn't perfectly symmetric in the Arial font because the superlative loop of the B is just a tiny scrap smaller than the bottom loop.   I can't tell that without actually flipping it upside down or measuring, though, and so I left it in my list.  Information technology would be like shooting fish in a barrel to draw a capital letter B that did take horizontal line symmetry--this one almost does.

The capital letters H, I ,O and X all have both horizontal and vertical line symmetry.

All the rest of the letters (F, G, J, 1000, Fifty, Due north, P, Q, R, S and Z) have no line symmetry.
