SYMMETRY

The star below has 5 lines of symmetry, five lines on which it can be folded so that both
sides match perfectly.

NAME OF THE OBJECT: GLOW IN THE


DARK STAR

This is a GLOW IN THE DARK STAR object and


classified to be an example of a symmetry.

I included it as one of the symmetry because the star has


5 lines of symmetry, five lines on which it can be folded
so that both sides match perfectly.

NAME OF THE OBJECT: EYE GLASS

This is an EYE GLASS object and classified to be an


example of a symmetry.

I included it as one of the symmetry because the image


can be "flipped" to create the other half of the frame,
identical to the original half and thus symmetrical.

NAME OF THE OBJECT: AIRPLANE


KEYCHAIN

This is an AIRPLANE KEYCHAIN object and


classified to be an example of a symmetry.

I included it as one of the symmetry because the aircraft


have left- and right-hand sides which are exact mirror
images of each other.

NAME OF THE OBJECT: HUMAN BODY

This is a HUMAN BODY object and classified to be an


example of a symmetry.

I included it as one of the symmetry because our bodies


start out symmetrical, the left side a perfect reflection of
the right.
FRACTAL

NAME OF THE OBJECT: CLOUD

This is a CLOUD object and classified to be an example of a fractal.

I included it as one of the fractal because researcher assumes that


clouds are fractal due to the fractal nature of turbulence.

NAME OF THE OBJECT: BRANCH OF TREE

This is a BRANCH OF TREE object and classified to be an example of


a fractal.

I included it as one of the fractal because if we follow one of these


branch, it too splits in a way that is similar to the previous branch. Each
branch of tree is itself a smaller tree shape. So a tree is like a fractal.
SPIRAL

NAME OF THE OBJECT: SPRING

This is a SPRING object and classified to be an example of a spiral.

I included it as one of the spiral because a spring is in the shape of helix


since helical shape transforms the pulling force on the spring to a
twisting force on slices of the wires that makes up the spring.

NAME OF THE OBJECT: MOSQUITO COIL

This is a MOSQUITO COIL object and classified to be an example of a


spiral.

I included it as one of the spiral because its shape winds round and
round with each curve above or outside the previous one.
