A figure has rotational symmetry when it can rotate onto itself in less than a full rotation.

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.


What is an angle of symmetry?

The least angle at which the figure may be rotated to coincide with itself is the angle of symmetry.


When a figure rotates onto itself in less than a full turn?

What kind of symmetry does a star have?

a starfish has a rotational symmetry because it rotates back to itself 90 degrees which is 1/4 of a turn.


What is linear symetry?

the no. of times the figure fits into itself is called order of rotation.


A figure is transformed in the plane such that no point maps to itself. What type of transformation?

It could be a reflection with the mirror line outside the figure; it could be a rotation with the centre of rotation outside the figure; or it could be a translation.


What does a rotation mean in Geometry?

In geometry, a rotation refers to the movement of a figure around a fixed point, called the center of rotation. The figure remains the same shape and size, but it changes its position, orientation, or both. A rotation can be either clockwise or counterclockwise, and is measured in degrees.


How does the London eye have rotational symmetry?

Because the London Eye can turn a full 360 degrees and replicate or look like itself it considered to have rotational symmetry.
