A pentagonal prism has 5 faces, each of which can be rotated to align with the original position. Since there are 5 possible positions where the prism looks the same after a rotation, it has 5 axes of rotational symmetry. Each axis passes through the center of a face and is perpendicular to that face.

Does a semi circle have rotational symmetry?
If the central point of the straight line is placed exactly on the middle, and such central point has an axis, it will have a rotational symmetry.
Does a cane have rotational symmetry?
Yes, a cane does have rotational symmetry. A cane can be rotated 180 degrees and still appear the same, making it a symmetrical object. This is because a cane has a cylindrical shape with uniform features around its axis, allowing for rotational symmetry.
Is the quality a design has if it maintains all characteristics when it is rotated about an axis lying in its plane?
Reflectional symmetry
Does a rectangular prism have plane symmetry or symmetry about an axis?
I believe it has both. If you draw planes through the middle of opposite sides e.g. top/bottom, left side/right side, front/back, you will get three planes of (refection) symmetry. Also if you draw three lines through those same points, you will get three axes of (rotational) symmetry.
Does an oval have a rotational symmetry?
Rotational symmetry counts how many times a shape will fit onto itself when it is rotated 360°. When an oval (I assume you mean an ellipse) is rotated it will fit onto itself after 180°, thus it has rotational symmetry (of order 2).
How many axes of symmetry does a pentagonal prism have?
A pentagonal prism has 5 vertical axes of symmetry that pass through the center of each of the pentagonal bases and the midpoint of the opposite base edges. Additionally, it has 1 horizontal axis of symmetry that runs through the midpoints of the two pentagonal bases. Therefore, a pentagonal prism has a total of 6 axes of symmetry.
What is the symmetry of a bottle of soda?
Rotational symmetry along one axis.
What is axisymmetry?
Axisymmetry is a form of symmetry around an axis - also known as rotational symmetry.
Does a semi circle have rotational symmetry?
If the central point of the straight line is placed exactly on the middle, and such central point has an axis, it will have a rotational symmetry.
Can an image and its translation image demonstrate rotation symmetry?
It can be thought of rotational symmetry along the axis
How many axes of rotational symmetry does a rectangular pyramid have?
It depends upon the pyramid: if it is a right rectangular pyramid it will have one axis of rotational symmetry which runs from the apex to the centre of the base and a rotational symmetry of 2. If it is not a right rectangular pyramid then there is no axis of rotation which will permit the pyramid to fit on itself before a complete rotation of 360°
How man lines of symmetry and orders of rotational of symmetry does a Square have?
It have 4 axis of symmetry . Two Perpendiculars and two Diagonals
What doesn't have rotational symmetry?
Nothing. (Except if you count z axis and you get into 3D!)
Is Rotational symmetry is a quality design has if it maintains all characteristics when it is rotated about an axis lying in its plane?
Not exactly. Rotational symmetry means that a shape will look the same if the object is rotated around some axis, by ANY angle.There are no specific requirements as to where the axis must be.

What type of symmetry is a swastika?
Fourfold rotational. In chemistry, it would be called a C4 axis.
