Shapes can be transformed in a number of ways. These include translation, rotation and reflection. Translation causes a shape to move. Rotation causes a shape to move. Reflection causes a shape to ...

Reflective symmetry is when a shape can be folded in half, with either side of the fold being a mirror image of the other. Rotational symmetry is when a shape can be rotated and it still looks the ...

Symmetry attracts us. Studies comparing people’s reactions to different faces have shown, for example, that they find highly symmetrical faces more attractive than less symmetrical faces. The symmetry ...
