It means that if you copy the shape on a piece of wax paper and you put the wax paper on the normal paper to match it up, you put a sharp object such as a pencil or pen and you rotate the wax paper you will be able to match the wax paper shape up to the normal paper shape even if the wax paper has been spun.

A figure has rotational symmetry when it has 2 lines of symmetry. Wait, that's wrong. It's 2 or more lines of symmetry.
Hope this helps!! =D
rotation symmetry of a parallelogram Sequence
Sometimes called rotation symmetry, or symmetry of rotation. If you have an object that can be turned through a certain angle (like rotating a cube through 90o) and then it looks identical, then that object has a certain symmetry under rotation. If you can turn it through any angle, like a cylinder, then it has rotation (or rotational) symmetry.
