What is Rotational Symmetry?
The recycling icon is a very common symbol, and like most effective icons, the image itself is suggestive of its meaning. The arrows of the image appear to be moving in a circular manner, suggesting the circular concept of recycling. Adding to this perception is that if you were to rotate the image 120 degrees, and another 120 degrees, and a third 120 degrees, it would look the same at all three stops.
This attribute is called rotational symmetry. Many shapes have rotational symmetry, such as rectangles, squares, circles, and all regular polygons. Choose an object and rotate it up to 180 degrees around its center. If at any point the object appears exactly like it did before the rotation, then the object has rotational symmetry. In this lesson, you will be given several image examples, as well as definitions of the relevant concepts center, order, and degree of rotation.
