Abstract:

This is the first i-Math in a four-part series of i-Maths entitled Symmetries and Their Properties. In this first i-Math you will investigate rotational symmetry. Fix a center, turn, and you have a rotation. Many objects in nature—flowers, starfish, and crystals—and objects we use every day, such as wheels, CDs, and drinking glasses, have rotational symmetry. Here, you will learn about the mathematical properties of rotations and have an opportunity to make your own designs.
