<p>- Hi, welcome to this question right here. So here we are. This figure right here, it says in the question it does have a rotation symmetry. So the first part of the question asks you, "Where is the center of rotation?" Now, all you have to do is just pick the center of your image and they have to know that this point, if you rotate it, it will form exactly the same image after you rotate it to certain degrees. So for this figure right here is a rectangular shape, the green part, right? So the center of the symmetry, or I'd say the center of rotation will be this point right here. So you can imagine that if you have a piece of paper with this size and if you rotate that piece of paper around, you will still get the same image, okay? So what are the order and the angle of rotation? The order of the rotation is this. You can actually relate the order to the line of symmetry you have. So if you look at the square right here, you have four symmetrical lines. You got one this way, this way, and this way, and then this way. So there's four lines. So technically the order of rotation for this question will be a four, okay? Now, the angle of rotation, you can actually calculate it. It's pretty simple. You see, when we rotate things around, it's actually 360. So to calculate this, it's 360 and all you have to do is divide it by the order number that you found, which is four. Now once again, to figure the order, all you have to do is figure a line of symmetry you have. So let's just quickly draw that. So we&apos;ve got one line going down this way. This is one symmetrical line and this is two and this is three and this is four. So with four lines of symmetry, you can actually relate that to the order number. So to calculate the angle of rotation, just take the 360, which is one complete turn, it's always 360 by the way, and divide it by four, the orders that you have. Now 360 divided by four, using your calculator, you get yourself a 90 degrees. So that's your angle of rotation right there, 90 degrees. It says, "Show your answers in degrees," which is this one right here and/or as a fraction of a turn. Now, a fraction of a turn, it's 360, right? So if you take that and divide it by 360, which is 90 divided by 360 again, basically you get yourself a one quarter, and this is your one quarter of a turn for this question. That's it. Thanks for watching.</p>


When an object is turned around its center of rotation to certain <a href='[[glossary.html|{"keyword":"Degree","term":"Degree"}]]'>degrees</a> and the object looks the same, we can say it has rotational symmetry. We will learn the details of rotational symmetry including, lines of symmetry, order of rotation, and angle of rotation.
