Dear student,

Please find below the solution to the asked query:

A figure has rotational symmetry if it can be rotated around a point so that resulting figures match the original figure
 The point around which you rotate is called the center of rotation, and the smallest angle you need to turn is called the angle of rotation
  The number of positions a figure can be rotated to, without bringing in any changes to the way it looks originally, is called its Order of Rotational Symmetry
The order of rational symmetry of various figures is given below:     FIGURES                                  Order of Rotational symmetry Equilateral triangle:                                        3      Circle                                                           infinite                                                             Triangular prism                      Planes of Symmetry for Triangular prism are four when it is equilateral
                                                          It is two when it is isosceles
 It is one when it is scalene
                                           Square                                                            4                        Cuboid                                      The cuboid  with two rectangular faces and two square faces has                                                           a rotational symmetry of order 2 about the axis  of symmetry                                                                 Isoscles triangle                                            1      Scalene triangle                                            1      Cone                                      The order of rotational symmetry is infinite about its axis
