What figure has rotational symmetry?

A sphere has rotational symmetry of an infinite degree.


If a figure has rotational symmetry does it have line symmetry?

yes


Is it true that a figure with no lines of symmetry have rotational symmetry?

yes


How many orders of symmetry does a rectangle have?

The rectangle's rotational symmetry is of order 2. A square's rotational symmetry is of order 4; the triangle has a symmetry of order 3. Rotational symmetry is the number of times a figure can be rotated and still look the same as the original figure.


What figure has rotational symmetry but not line symmetry?

A nonrectangular parallelogram has rotational symmetry, but not line symmetry. Additionally, shapes such as the letters S, N, and Z can be rotated to show rotational symmetry, although they do not have line symmetry.


Can a figure have line symmetry and not rotational symmetry?

Yes. An ellipse (oval) has two lines of symmetry, but not a rotational symmetry. A parabola has one line and no rotation.


What figure has a rotational symmetry?

What figure has both line symmetry and rotational symmetry?

A circle and square.


Can a figure with two or more lines of symmetry can have rotational symmetry?

Yes. A circle has infinitely many lines of symmetry and it also has rotational symmetry of infinite order.
