Learn about the concept of rotational symmetry and how it is determined by the order of symmetry in different 2D shapes.
E N D
Order 4 Order 2 Order 1 Order 3 Rotational Symmetry All 2 dimensional shapes have some rotational symmetry. The degree of rotational symmetry that an object has is known as its order. For shapes that have “order 2” rotational symmetry or higher, a single centre of rotation can be located. For shapes that have only “order 1” rotational symmetry a centre of rotation can be found anywhere within it. The order of rotational symmetry that an object has is the number of times that it fits on to itself during a full rotation of 360 degrees.
