Since f(x) is an even function, the statement which is true is the graph of f(x) has a line of symmetry about the y-axis.

To answer the question, we need to know what an even function is.

An even function is a function f(x) such that f(x) = f(-x). That is f(x) is single valued for both positive and negative values of x.

Now, for an even function, since f(x) = f(-x), both positive and negative values of x give a single value of f(x).

For this to be true, the graph of f(x) is symmetric about the y-axis.

So, since f(x) is an even function, the statement which must be true is graph of f(x) has a line of symmetry about the y-axis.
