Rotational Symmetry

A geometric shape has rotational symmetry about a point O if it can be made to fit exactly onto the original when it is rotated about O through some positive angle less than one complete cycle. For example, any regular polygon has rotational symmetry about its center. Any geometric shape that has two-fold rotational symmetry (rotated 180°) has point symmetry.
