Symmetry | O Level Mathematics 4024 & IGCSE Mathematics 0580 | Detailed Free Notes To Score An A Star (A*)
- Line of symmetry simple concept
- If you fold the shape on this line, it must come perfectly on the other half.
- Rotational Symmetry
- How many times, while rotating the shape 360 degree, will we see the same shape again and again.
- No shape has a rotational symmetry of zero
- At least 1. because when be turn it around completely, it will come back on the same shape.

- Prism symmetry properties
- Any cross section taken from the prism which is parallel to the base is equal to each other and has the same shape/ size.
- Pyramid symmetry properties
- Any cross section taken from the pyramid that is parallel to the base has the same shape, but is smaller in size.
