Oh, dude, a regular hexagon has six sides, so it has six lines of symmetry. Each line of symmetry represents a different way you can rotate the hexagon and have it look the same. So, the order of rotational symmetry for a regular hexagon is 6. Like, it's symmetry, but make it hexagonal.

LaoThe order of rotational symmetry for a shape is the number of times that it can be rotated so that it appears the same without rotation (e.g. if you rotate an equilateral triangle 60o clockwise it looks the same).
For regular polygons, the order of rotational symmetry for the shape is the number of sides that it has. A hexagon has 6 sides so has order of rotational symmetry 6.

What regular polygons have rotational symmetry?
All of them have rotational symmetry because all the sides and angles have to be the same in order for the polygon to be a regular polygon
What shape has a rotational symmetry of order 1?
none shapes have 1 rotational symmetry because in rotational symmetry one is none
What is the order of rotational symmetry of the star?
6 i think.....
What shape has rotational symmetry order 2?
A rectangle
Order of rotational symmetry on an oval?
Oh, dude, an oval has an infinite number of lines of symmetry, so technically it has infinite rotational symmetry. But like, who's really gonna sit there and rotate an oval forever just to prove a point, right? So, yeah, infinite rotational symmetry for the win!
