Symmetry refers to a balanced and proportionate similarity between two halves of an object or design. Key characteristics include reflection symmetry (where one half mirrors the other), rotational symmetry (where an object looks the same after a certain degree of rotation), and translational symmetry (where a pattern repeats at regular intervals). Symmetry often conveys harmony and aesthetic appeal in art, nature, and architecture, while also playing a crucial role in mathematical concepts and physical laws.
The sides and angles are uneven. A scalene can never have a line of symmetry
No. Objects can have reflective symmetry but no rotational symmetry.

This is the definition of "rotational symmetry", or if the statement is true for any number of degrees of rotation it is also "circular symmetry.".
No, that statement is not true. Reflectional symmetry refers to a design that is identical on both sides of a central line, meaning it can be folded along that line and the two halves will match. The quality of maintaining characteristics when rotated about a point describes rotational symmetry, not reflectional symmetry.

it is a symmetry
This is the definition of "rotational symmetry", or if the statement is true for any number of degrees of rotation it is also "circular symmetry.".
A design with four-fold symmetry can be rotated 90, 180, or 270 degrees and still maintain all of its characteristics. This means there are three different places it can be rotated while keeping its symmetry.
