What about an isosceles triangle where two sides are identical? if we draw a line through the vertex angle, the result is two identical triangles. Since they are identical, and they share the line of symmetry as a side, we are able to fold one on to the other.
Note that we are not able to draw any other line of symmetry and get two congruent triangles.
Therefore, the triangle she is thinking about is an isosceles triangle.
Therefore, the triangle she is thinking about is an equilateral triangle.
Rectangles and rhombi have a minimum of two lines of symmetry. A non-rhombic, non-rectangular parallelogram does not have any lines of symmetry. Since all parallelograms have rotational symmetry, Camille must be thinking of an non-rhombic, non-rectangular parallelogram.
