Introduction to Angle of Rotational Symmetry:

Introduction:
Rotational symmetry is definite as angle, while we rotate as alternate a shape in its center point; you may notice that at a certain angle, the shape coincides with its not rotated itself. When this happens, the shape is said that it have rotational symmetry. A shape has rotational symmetry if it fits on to itself two or more times in one turn. The number of times the rotational symmetry is the shape fits on to itself in one turn.

Types of Symmetry:

Symmetry has,
  • Line symmetry
  • 2D rotational symmetry
  • 3D rotational symmetry
A 2D shape has a line of symmetry if the lines separate the shape into two share equally – one being the mirror image of the other.
Rotation: whatever rotate the shape on it around, every rotation has depending on center point and an angle.
Translation: Translation is to be in motion without rotating or reflecting, every translation has depending on distance and direction.
Reflection: reflection is seemed mirror image. Every reflection has a mirror line.
Glide Reflection: With the direction of the reflection line, glide reflection is the symmetry of its collection of reflection and translation.
Hope you liked the above explanation. Please leave your comments, if you have any doubts.
