Question

An 8-car Ferris wheel is shaped like a regular octagon. Does the Ferris wheel have rotational symmetry?

Answer 1

Answer:

Yes, it does.

Step-by-step explanation:

Every regular shaped figure will have rotational symmetry, since they are built with identical segments all around.

To find the answer, ask yourself « If I rotate the shape, is there a time where I’ll find the exact same shape again with a different angle? »

So, a square has rotational symmetry, but not a rectangle.

A equilateral triangle has rotational symmetry, but not any other type of triangle.
