The three types of symmetry are:

  1. Reflectional Symmetry: This occurs when a shape can be divided into two identical halves that are mirror images of each other. For example, a butterfly exhibits reflectional symmetry along its vertical axis.

  2. Rotational Symmetry: A shape has rotational symmetry if it can be rotated around a central point and still look the same at certain angles. For instance, a starfish typically has five-fold rotational symmetry.

  3. Translational Symmetry: This type occurs when a pattern can be moved (translated) along a certain direction and still appear unchanged. An example is a wallpaper design that repeats the same motif across its surface.

Do all figures with rotational symmetry also have reflection symmetry?

No.For example, a hexagon with equal angles and sides of lengths a,b,a,b,a,b has rotational symmetry of order 3, but it has no reflection symmetry.No.For example, a hexagon with equal angles and sides of lengths a,b,a,b,a,b has rotational symmetry of order 3, but it has no reflection symmetry.No.For example, a hexagon with equal angles and sides of lengths a,b,a,b,a,b has rotational symmetry of order 3, but it has no reflection symmetry.No.For example, a hexagon with equal angles and sides of lengths a,b,a,b,a,b has rotational symmetry of order 3, but it has no reflection symmetry.
