Rotational Symmetry. A shape has Rotational Symmetry when it still looks the same after some rotation (of less than one full turn). How many times it matches as we go once around is called the Order. Think of propeller blades (like below), it makes it easier.

3 sie 2023 · A shape is said to have a rotational symmetry if after its rotation of anything less than 360°, looks the same. This rotation can be clockwise or anticlockwise. Geometric shapes like equilateral triangles, squares, pentagons, hexagons, or any other regular polygon posses rotational symmetry.
What is rotational symmetry? Rotational symmetry is the number of times a shape can “fit into itself” when it is rotated 360 degrees about its centre. E.g. A rectangle has a rotational symmetry of order 2 shown below where one vertex is highlighted with a circle and the centre of the shape is indicated with an ‘x’.

Rotational symmetry, also known as radial symmetry in geometry, is the property a shape has when it looks the same after some rotation by a partial turn. An object's degree of rotational symmetry is the number of distinct orientations in which it looks exactly the same for each rotation.
Rotational symmetry is defined as a type of symmetry in which the image of a given shape is exactly identical to the original shape or image in a complete turn or a full angle rotation or 360° rotation. It exists when a shape is turned, and the shape is identical to the original.
A shape has Rotational Symmetry when it still looks the same after some rotation. As we rotate this image we find three different positions that each look the same. So it has Rotational Symmetry of Order 3.
