Describe the different types of symmentery?
The different types of symmetry are rotational symmetry whereby the various object parts are related by rotation angles, and reflectional symmetry where halves of the object form the mirror images.
How many lines of symetry does an airplane have?
None. For a 3-dimensional object, a line of symmetry implies rotational symmetry and an aircraft has no line of rotational symmetry.
What are rotational symmetry?
Rotational symmetry is determining whether a shape has symmetry when it is rotated from the center. For example: if you have a star fish, it does have rotational symmetry because you can rotate the star fish 5 times and their still be symmetry. If the object has rotational symmetry, you then can determine the percentage and order of the ratational symmetry. The percentage is how much out of 100% the object is rotated to find symmetry. The order is how many times it is to be rotated before the object has returned to its origiinal position. Take the star fish example. It can be rotated 5 times (each turn having symmatry). The percentage of rotation would be 20%, and the order would be 5.
What object has an 180 degree rotational symmetry?
Anything that is symmetrical about its horizontal centreline
What is rotational symmetry of alphabet?
The rotational symmetry of a plane object is the number of times it will look exactly like its original shape when you rotate it through 360 degrees in its plane. A whole alphabet has no rotational symmetry but some letters in an alphabet may have rotational symmetry. The number of symmetries depends on the alphabet, whether the letters are in upper or lower case as well as the font used.

An object with reflectional symmetry can be created by rotating it about an axis called the?
Line of symmetry
Does a paralleogram have rotational symmetry?
No, a parallelogram does not have rotational symmetry because it cannot be rotated onto itself. Rotational symmetry requires an object to look the same after being rotated by a certain angle.
How many lines of symetry does an airplane have?
None. For a 3-dimensional object, a line of symmetry implies rotational symmetry and an aircraft has no line of rotational symmetry.

What type of figure is rotational symmetry?
Rotational symmetry is when you turn or rotate a shape and it still looks the same. A circle is the most common answer. However, it you rotate a square about 90 degrees, it still looks the same, so it is considered rotational symmetry. Technically, any shape can have rotational symmetry because it you rotate it 360 degrees, it still looks the same.Definition of rotational symmetry:Generally speaking, an object with rotational symmetry is an object that looks the same after a certain amount of rotation. An object may have more than one rotational symmetry; for instance, if reflections or turning it over are not counted. The degree of rotational symmetry is how many degrees the shape has to be turned to look the same on a different side or vertex. It can not be the same side or vertex.
Rotational symmetry is the quality a design has if it maintains all characteristics when it is rotated about a point?
Yes. An object with rotational symmetry is one that looks the same after a certain amount of rotation.
What is rotational symmetry of alphabet?
The rotational symmetry of a plane object is the number of times it will look exactly like its original shape when you rotate it through 360 degrees in its plane. A whole alphabet has no rotational symmetry but some letters in an alphabet may have rotational symmetry. The number of symmetries depends on the alphabet, whether the letters are in upper or lower case as well as the font used.
What is an object in nature that has self-symmetry?
a leaf
What does order of rotational symmetry mean?
The order of symmetry of an object is the number of part-rotations that bring the object to a position that is identical to its starting position. Note that since all objects must return to their starting position if rotated through one whole circle (360 degrees), rotational symmetry of 1 is not counted.
Why does the last time when you turn a shape for rotational symmetry not count towards the number of times it has rotational symmetry?
It depends on what you mean by "the last time". Your last time may not be my idea of last time. The turn that brings the object back to its starting position IS counted but only if the object has at least one other position of symmetry. This is to exclude objects that have symmetry of order 1. These are not regarded as being symmetrical because then every object would be symmetrical.
