Point symmetry is a type of symmetry where a figure is identical to its reflection through a central point, known as the center of symmetry. In point symmetry, for every point in the figure, there exists another point at an equal distance from the center but in the opposite direction. This means that if you were to draw a line from one point to the center and extend it an equal distance on the other side, you would find a corresponding point of the figure. Common examples include the graph of a function that is odd or geometric shapes like a star.

Does a triangle have point symmetry?

No, a triangle does not have point symmetry. Point symmetry occurs when an object or shape remains the same after being rotated 180 degrees around a central point. In the case of a triangle, it does not have point symmetry because it does not look the same after a 180-degree rotation.

Are center of symmetry and inversion symmetry one and the same?

No, the centre of symmetry is a point usually somewhere in the middle of an object around which things like rotational or reflection occurs. Inversion symmetry is a sort of symmetry itself and not a point like the centre.
