Yes, it is possible to have a shape that has a line of symmetry but does not have rotational symmetry. An example is the letter "K", which has a vertical line of symmetry but cannot be rotated to match its original orientation.
A line of symmetry in a shape is an imaginary line that divides the shape into two equal halves that are mirror images of each other. When a shape is folded along its line of symmetry, both sides match perfectly.
There are three elements of symmetry: 1-axis of symmetry It's a line which cuts the molecule into two equal halves. 2-plane of symmetry It's a plane which cuts the molecule into two equal halves (such as 'axis of symmetry' but axis is a line and here it's a plane). 3-center of symmetry It's a point in space that, if you draw a line from any part to it, and then extend the line beyond it, another atom will be encountered.
Something that is symmetrical along a line. Like you could fold it in half and it would be the same. Like a rorschach inkblot. A butterfly. A person. The other kind of symmetry is radial symmetry, which is symmetrical from a point. Like a starfish. I think things that are radially symmetrical are always also laterally symmetrical, but there could be some weird exception to that that I can't think of.
No, radial symmetry has the one with many lines.

they can but not all shirts have a line of symmetry for example an assymetrical shirt doesnt have a line of symmetry
An isosceles triangle for example has only one line of symmetry
A rhombus (not square) for example.
A kite, for example.

A rainbow.
Shapes do not always have lines of symmetry. For example, if you have an irregular shape, it will not have a line of symmetry. I am quite certain though that all geometric shapes have a line of symmetry.
A real life example of a line is a road. Other examples of lines include ball courts, driveways, roof tops, and buildings.
The line of reflection in symmetry is the imaginary line that travels down the line of symmetry. For example, in a square, the line of reflection would be the line down the center of the square, and the line down the diagonal of the square.
A real life example of a line is lines painted on the roadways. These lines divide traffic. Lines are also found on graphic prints and sport fields.
