To prove the center of symmetry for a geometric figure, you must show that for every point in the figure, there exists a corresponding point that is equidistant from the center but in the opposite direction. Mathematically, if a point ( P(x, y) ) is in the figure, then the point ( P'(-x, -y) ) should also be in the figure for it to have a center of symmetry at the origin. If this condition holds true for all points in the figure, then it confirms that the figure has a center of symmetry. Alternatively, you can verify that the figure remains unchanged under a 180-degree rotation about the center.

Does T have rotational symmetry and line symmetry?
It has line symmetry (straight down the center) but not rotational symmetry.
What figure has line symmetry and point symmetry?
A circle exhibits both line symmetry and point symmetry. It has an infinite number of lines of symmetry that pass through its center, dividing it into two mirror-image halves. Additionally, any point on the circle can be reflected through its center to another point on the circle, demonstrating point symmetry. This means that every point on the circle is equidistant from the center, reinforcing both types of symmetry.
Is a circle a symmetry?

Stereochemistry question... 2-bromobutane I have a molecule 2-bromobutane CH3CH2CHBrCH3 I'm trying to figure out its optical activity by finding a stereogenic center. What I'm confused about is?
In 2-bromobutane, the carbon atom bonded to the bromine atom (CHBrCH3) is the stereogenic center. To determine its optical activity, you need to analyze if there is a plane of symmetry or a center of symmetry within the molecule. If the molecule is chiral (lacks a plane of symmetry or center of symmetry), it will be optically active.
What is the midpoint of symmetry of a circle?
The midpoint of symmetry of a circle is its center. A circle is symmetric around its center, meaning that for any point on the circumference, the point directly opposite to it (across the center) is also on the circumference. This property holds true for all points on the circle, illustrating its uniform symmetry.
What is the point od symmetry of a circle?
The 'center' of the circle is.
How do you find the center of gravity of a circle and a rectangle?
In both cases, because of their symmetry, the center of gravity is in the geometric center.
Are center of symmetry and inversion symmetry one and the same?
No, the centre of symmetry is a point usually somewhere in the middle of an object around which things like rotational or reflection occurs. Inversion symmetry is a sort of symmetry itself and not a point like the centre.
