What shape has a rotational symmetry of order 1?
none shapes have 1 rotational symmetry because in rotational symmetry one is none
Does the shape the heart have any rotational symmetry?
no they don't
How can you find rotational symmetry in a matchbox?
A matchbox is rectangular in shape. A rectangle has 2 lines of rotational symmetery. So, a matchbox has 2 lines of rotational symmetry.
What is the order of rotational symmetry of the star?
6 i think.....
Does a hexagon have rotational symmetry?
Yes. Any even sided figure will have a rotational symmetry. Yes. If it is a regular shape such as a square, hexagon or octagon (equilateral and equiangular) then the rotational symmetry is the same as the number of sides. Rotational symmetry is basically if the shape is rotated, is it exactly the same as it was before. A hexagon can be rotated 6 times and still be the same without actually being in the the same postition, so a hexagon has a rotational symmetry of 6.
Can a shape have rotational symmetry and line symmetry?
Yes. Any equilateral shape can have both rotational and line symmetry.
What shape has order of rotational symmetry but no lines of symmetry?
no shape does! * * * * * Not true. A parallelogram has rotational symmetry of order 2, but no lines of symmetry.
How many rotational symmetry does a fake star have?
it has 5 rotational symmetry
What shape has a rotational symmetry of order 1?
none shapes have 1 rotational symmetry because in rotational symmetry one is none
What shape has a line of symmetry and rotational symmetry?
circle
Which shape line of symmetry but no rotational symmetry?
A semicircle.
What figure has rotational symmetry?
A sphere has rotational symmetry of an infinite degree.
Does a shape have to be a regular polygon in order to have rotational symmetry?
A line segment would have rotational symmetry.
What shapes has rotational symmetry?
A star
Does a star have rotational symmetry?
if it is a reg. star, yes it does!:)
What is Rotatioanl symmetry?
Rotational symmetry is the amount of symmetry you would have if you rotated the shape.
How do you sketch a figure with rotational symmetry but no line symmetry?
When a shape is rotated about its centre, if it comes to rest in a position and looks exactly like the original, then it has rotational symmetry. A shape like an equilateral triangle would therefore have an order of rotational symmetry of 3. The general rule for a regular polygon (shapes such as pentagons, heptagons, octagons etc. is, that the number of sides is the same as the number of lines of symmetry, which is also the same as the rotational symmetry order). This means that a regular hexagon has 6 sides, 6 lines of symmetry and an order of rotational symmetry of 6. Following from this, then a square, which is a regular polygon, has 4 sides, 4 lines of symmetry and an order of rotational symmetry of 4. If a shape has rotational symmetry, it must have either line symmetry or point symmetry or both. For example, a five pointed star has 5 lines of symmetry and rotational symmetry of order 5, but does not have point symmetry. A parallelogram has no line of symmetry, but has rotational symmetry of order 2 and also point symmetry. Only a shape which has line symmetry or point symmetry can have rotational symmetry. When there is point symmetry and also rotational symmetry, the order of the latter is even. For example, the letter 'S' has rotational symmetry of order 2, the regular hexagon of order 6. On this basis, we would suggest that the letter 'F' does not have a rotational symmetry order as it does not have either line symmetry or point symmetry. It doesn't have a centre around which you could rotate it. Sounds weird, but given the definitions, we think this is the case.
