Question

question 3 points 2 what is the order of rotational symmetry in the figure given below? figure: a cross - like shape with four triangular parts arranged around a central point options: 1, 2, 3, 4 (each with a circular selection button)

Explanation:

Step1: Understand rotational symmetry

Rotational symmetry order is the number of times a figure maps onto itself when rotated 360° around its center.

Step2: Analyze the given figure

The figure has 4 identical triangular - like parts around the center. When we rotate the figure by \( \frac{360^{\circ}}{4}=90^{\circ} \), \( 180^{\circ} \), \( 270^{\circ} \) and \( 360^{\circ} \) (which is the same as 0°), the figure maps onto itself. So the number of times it maps onto itself during a full rotation (360°) is 4.

Answer:

4 (corresponding to the option with 4, i.e., the last option: 4)
