How do you figure out Rotational Symmetry? Rotational Symmetry If a shape can fit exactly into itself after a certain rotation (not a full one) about a fixed point (called centre of rotation) then it is said to have rotational symmetry. The angle of turning during rotation is called the angle of rotation. For example, a square has a rotational symmetry.Point … [Read more...] about How do you figure out Rotational Symmetry?

Intuitive Notion of Rotational Symmetry
Intuitive Notion of Rotational Symmetry An object has rotational symmetry if there is a center point around which the object is turned (rotated) a certain number of degrees and the object looks the same. The number of positions in which the object looks exactly the same is called the order of the symmetry. When determining order, the last rotation returns the object to its … [Read more...] about Intuitive Notion of Rotational Symmetry
