Question 28
Write in Short
Short Answer▾Mention order of rotational symmetry.
Explanation
Here, The order of rotational symmetry is that an object has the number of times that it fits on to itself during a full rotation of 360 degrees.
- So, here given image will rotate and can fit in itself at means two times.
- So, order of symmetry of given image is 2.
