Overview
This chapter explores the fascinating world of symmetry in shapes and patterns. Symmetry is all around us in nature, art, and design. In this chapter, we learn how to identify whether shapes have mirror symmetry (where one half is a mirror image of the other) and rotational symmetry (where shapes lo
Key Concepts
Mirror symmetry occurs when a line
Mirror symmetry occurs when a line divides a shape into two halves that are exact mirror images of each other. When you fold the shape along this line
Rotational symmetry means a shape looks
Rotational symmetry means a shape looks exactly the same after being rotated (turned) by a certain amount. For example, a shape with half-turn symmetr
A shape has half
A shape has half-turn symmetry if it looks exactly the same after being rotated 180 degrees (a half turn). Imagine turning a shape upside down - if it
A shape has quarter
A shape has quarter-turn symmetry if it looks exactly the same after being rotated 90 degrees (a quarter turn). A four-bladed fan or a plus sign (+) h
A shape has third
A shape has third-turn symmetry (or three-fold rotational symmetry) if it looks exactly the same after being rotated 120 degrees (one-third of a compl
