TRUE or FALSE?

The clover has two reflectional symmetries and four rotational symmetries.

CHOOSE the BEST answer.

• True, because clover has two reflectional symmetries and four rotational symmetries.

• False, because clover has four reflectional symmetries and two rotational symmetries.

• True, because clover has both reflectional and rotational symmetries.

• False, because clover has four reflectional symmetries and four rotational symmetries.
