Symmetry Conditions

First, let's start by declaring the symmetry conditions in the problem. Right click Model > Insert > Symmetry. This will create a symmetry folder in the outline tree. Now, right click Symmetry > Insert > Symmetry Region. Make sure the Edge Select Tool is highlighted and select the left edge above the hole. Now look to the Details View window and select Geometry > Apply. This should create a red line with a tag on the model. Ensure that under Symmetry Normal the x-axis is selected. Repeat this process to create a symmetry region for the bottom edge to the right of the hole, but this time making sure that the Symmetry Normal parameter is the y-axis.
