kiertosymmetriat
Kiertosymmetria, also known as rotational symmetry, is a fundamental concept in geometry and symmetry studies. It refers to the property of an object or pattern that remains unchanged when rotated by a certain angle around a fixed point, known as the center of rotation. This type of symmetry is prevalent in various natural and man-made structures, including crystals, snowflakes, and architectural designs.
The order of rotational symmetry, denoted by n, indicates the number of distinct positions an object can
In mathematical terms, an object exhibits kiertosymmetria if there exists a rotation by an angle θ (where
Rotational symmetry is closely related to other types of symmetry, such as reflectional (or mirror) symmetry
