Rotational Symmetry: 

Rotational Symmetry

Rotational Symmetry: 

Rotational Symmetry If, when you rotate a shape, it looks exactly the same as it did in its original position, then we say that the shape has got rotational symmetry . This square has got rotational symmetry. It looks exactly the same four times in a full turn. It has got rotational symmetry order 4 .

Rotational Symmetry: 

Rotational Symmetry Does this rectangle have rotational symmetry? It looks exactly the same twice in a full turn. It has got rotational symmetry order 2 . Yes, it fits! No, it doesn’t fit No, it doesn’t fit Yes, it fits! Click to rotate the rectangle.

Pentominoes: 

Pentominoes A pentomino is made out of five squares that are connected along at least one edge. These are NOT pentominoes. Here is an example of a pentomino. How many different pentominoes can you find? Click here to return to line symmetry.

7-Pin Polygons: 

7-Pin Polygons Here is an arrangement of 7 pins. Here are some examples of 7-pin polygons. How many different 7-pin polygons can you find? Click here to return to line symmetry. A 7-pin polygon is a closed shape with straight sides with corners on the pins.
