  1. Symmetry

  2. Information

  3. Reflection symmetry

  4. Reflection symmetry Here are some designs for a company logo. How many lines of reflection symmetry does each have? 1 line of symmetry 5 lines of symmetry 3 lines of symmetry

  5. Make this shape symmetrical

  6. Rotational symmetry An object has rotational symmetry if it fits exactly onto itself by a rotation of 180° or less when it is turned about a point at its center. The order of rotational symmetry is the number of times the object fits onto itself during a 360° turn. If the order of rotational symmetry is 1, then the object has to be rotated through 360° before it fits onto itself again. Only objects that have rotational symmetry of order 2 or more are said to have rotational symmetry.

  7. Reflection and rotational symmetry What is this design’s order of rotational symmetry and what is the angle of rotation? The order or rotational symmetry of this shape is 4. The angle of rotation is 90°. What tools would be useful to help check an object for rotational symmetry? Tracing paper to trace then shape and then use it to see how many copies of the shape fit onto itself during a 360° rotation.

  8. Using tracing paper

  9. Rotational symmetry What is the order of rotational symmetry for each of the following designs? Rotational symmetry order 4 Rotational symmetry order 3 Rotational symmetry order 5

  10. Rotational symmetry in objects The design of a dart board is an example of an object in the real world with rotational symmetry (order 11). Can you think of some more examples of real world objects with rotational symmetry? Order 2: Order 5: Order 6: Order 9:

  11. Reflection and rotational symmetry Some shapes have both reflection and rotational symmetry. How many lines of reflection symmetry does this design have? This design has five lines of reflection symmetry. What is the order of rotational symmetry of this design? This design has rotational symmetry of order 5.
