Questions ` 1) Identify all US states that have reflectional or rotational symmetry or both in their respective names 2) Identify symmetries for each letter in the alphabet. 3) Find a name in this class that has either reflectional or rotational symmetry. 4) Create 5 words that have rotational symmetry. 5) Create 5 words that have reflectional symmetry. 6) Create 5 words that have both symmetries. **Consider capital letters when writing word formations.**
Project 1) Using the classical tools of geometry (compass and straightedge), construct a two-dimensional image for each type of rotational symmetry (orders 2 thru 8). You will need a protractor. 2) Find a real-world example for each type of rotational symmetry (orders 2 thru 8). (If using the Internet, list the URL address) 3) CHALLENGE: Using construction tools, produce at least 5 different three-dimensional images exhibiting rotational symmetry or reflectional symmetry or both. Images must be original!!!
