No, the letter Y does not have rotational symmetry. It cannot be rotated and still appear the same.
Rotational symmetry refers to symmetry of the figure when it is rotated about a single point in the same plane. Lines of symmetry apply to reflections. You do not have lines of rotational symmetry.
It is called its order of rotational symmetry depending on its shape as for example a square has rotational symmetry to the order of 4 because it returns to its same shape every time of a turn of 90 degrees and so 360/90 = 4
As the name suggests, they are polygons that have one or more lines of symmetry or rotational symmetry of order two or more. A symmetric polygon is not the same as a regular polygon.
Numbers that have rotational symmetry are those that look the same after being rotated by certain angles. In the case of single-digit numbers, the numbers 0, 1, and 8 have rotational symmetry. When rotated 180 degrees, 0 and 8 look the same, and when rotated 90 degrees, 1 looks the same. Numbers like 2, 5, and 6 do not have rotational symmetry as they look different when rotated.
