What are the rotational symmetry of a 5 sided shape?
If it is a regular 5 sided pentagon then its order of rotational symmetry is 5
Does a pentagon have 180 degrees rotational symmetry?
No - a pentagon has 120 degree rotational symmetry.
Why is it 5 fold symmetry not possible?
A regular pentagon or a 5-pointed star have rotational symmetry of order 5.
Does pentagon the shape have symmetry in it?
A general pentagon may have no symmetries at all. A regular pentagon has five symmetry axes - each one connecting a vertex with the middle of the edge opposite this vertex. A regular pentagon also has rotational symmetry - if you rotate it by any multiple of 72 degrees clockwise or anti-clockwise you get a regular pentagon as well. Please also see the related link below.
How many rotational symmetry does a pentagon?
5
Does a pentagon have rotational symmetry?
Yes, a regular pentagon has rotational symmetry.
Is a regular pentagon rotational or reflectional symmetry?
It has both because it has 5 lines of symmetry and rotational symmetry to the order of 5
What are the rotational symmetry of a 5 sided shape?
If it is a regular 5 sided pentagon then its order of rotational symmetry is 5
Why does a regular pentagon have a 5 fold rotational symmetry?
This is a little bit like asking why a square has four sides. A regular pentagon is defined in such a way as to require that it has 5-fold rotational symmetry.
The degree of rotation symmetry of a pentagon?
a pentagon has rotational symmetry if its a regular pentagon. if you add all 5 sides together you will get 360 degrees
Does a pentagon have 180 degrees rotational symmetry?
No - a pentagon has 120 degree rotational symmetry.
Why is it 5 fold symmetry not possible?
A regular pentagon or a 5-pointed star have rotational symmetry of order 5.
What is the order of rotational symmetry of a regular pentagon?
5, you may think 1 but its actually 5
Is there a pentagon with line of symmetry but no rotational symmetry?
Yes
Is there a pentagon with rotational symmetry but no line of symmetry?
Yes.
How many order of rotational symmetry does a irregular pentagon have?
They have not got any rotational symmetry
What figure has rotational symmetry but not line symmetry?
A figure that has rotational symmetry but not line symmetry is a figure that can be rotated by a certain angle and still look the same, but cannot be reflected across a line to create a mirror image of itself. An example of such a figure is a regular pentagon, which has rotational symmetry of 72 degrees but does not have any lines of symmetry. This means that if you rotate a regular pentagon by 72 degrees, it will look the same, but you cannot reflect it across any line to create a mirror image.
