Let us have a positive charge q at a point O. Let us bring another positive test charge Q at a point P . Let the distance OP be r.
Then The force F experienced by the test charge Q is  given by
begin mathsize 12px style F space equals space fraction numerator q Q over denominator 4 pi epsilon subscript 0 r squared end fraction end style
Electric field due to the point charge q is defined as the force experienced by unit charge.
begin mathsize 12px style E space equals space F over Q space equals space fraction numerator q over denominator 4 pi epsilon subscript 0 r squared end fraction end style
Since this field intensity depends only on distance r, the symmetry is spherical symmetry
