Question

Determine if the figure below has rotational symmetry, line symmetry or both and
describe the transformation that mas the figure onto itself. BE SPECIFIC. You must
name the center of rotation and degree of rotation if it has rotational symmetry or
lines of reflection if it has line symmetry

Answer 1

Answer:

A) Given that the figure is a rectangle, it has a rotational symmetry and by rotating the figure 180° about the center of the figure, the preimage and image will coincide

The figure also has a line symmetry for the vertical line x = 5, and a line symmetry for the horizontal line y = 5

Therefore the figure has both symmetry

B) The transformation that maps the figure unto itself are therefore;

1) Rotating the figure 180° about the point (5, 5) which is the center of the figure

2) Reflection of the figure across the line x = 5 and also reflection of the figure across the line y = 5
