Symmetry

Question 9 • ! MCHS (CR25) - GEOMETRY

Which figure has the same order of rotational symmetry as a rectangle?

Answer
A
isosceles trapezoid
B
regular octagon
C
square
D
rhombus

Explanation

A rectangle maps onto itself after a half-turn, or 180° rotation, so its rotational symmetry has order 2. A rhombus also maps onto itself after a 180° rotation, giving it order 2. Therefore, the rhombus has the same order of rotational symmetry as a rectangle.
