    • Important points:

      1. Regular polygons have equal sides and equal angles. 

      2. Rotation = turns an object about a fixed point.

      3. Centre of rotation = fixed point around which object rotates

      4. Angle of rotation = Angle by which the object rotates

      5. Half-turn = rotation by 180o

      6.  Quarter-turn = rotation by 90o

      7. Rotational symmetry = after rotation the object looks same

      8. Order of rotational symmetry = in 360o rotation, number of times the object looks the same
