Question

Consider the rotational symmetry of regular hexagon ABCDEF. What is the order of rotational symmetry for hexagon ABCDEF? 1 3 6 8

Answer 1

the answer is 3 tell me if you got it right

Answer 2

Answer: Hello there!

A regular hexagon has 6 equal sides, so if you want to see the symetri angles, you need to see:

A = n*360/6 where n can be 0,1,2,3,4,5,6

then

A₀ = 0°

A₁ = 360°/6 = 60°

A₂ = 120°

A₃ = 180°

A₄ = 240°

A₅ = 300°

A₆ = 360°

discarding A₀ = 0° ( because this is not a rotation) You have 6 angles for symmetrical rotation, so the order of rotational symmetry is is 6.
