REFLECTION

(Pencerminan)

Characteristic of reflection are :

1. Image has the same size and same distance as the original to the
reflection/mirror line
2. Image faces the original shape
Symetry
1. Linear symetry  how many fold can we make by folding the shapes to be two equal parts

Line of symetry

2. Rotational symetry  how many turn does it take to fit into original shape (order of rotational
symetry)

The Order of rotational symetry of rectangle is 2 (2-fold rotational symetry)

The Order of rotational symetry of square is 4 (4-fold rotational symetry)

The Order of rotational symetry of equilateral triangle is 3 (3-fold rotational symetry)
