How many rotational symmetry does a fake star have?
it has 5 rotational symmetry
What shapes have 1 order of rotational symmetry?
Nothing has 1 order of rotational symmetry because in rotational symmetry 1 is none.
Why is it 5 fold symmetry not possible?
A regular pentagon or a 5-pointed star have rotational symmetry of order 5.
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.
An equilateral triangle has reflectional symmetry but does not have rotational symmetry?
It does have rotational symmetry of order three.
