This video tutorial from Minity Maths explains the concept of rotational symmetry, including how to determine the order of rotational symmetry for a shape. It provides a clear definition, discusses its occurrence in nature, and uses a square as an example to illustrate the concept. The video also includes practice questions to test understanding and encourages viewers to subscribe for more math revision videos.

What is rotational symmetry?

• Symmetry of a shape when it is scaled

• Symmetry of a shape when it is translated

• Symmetry of a shape when it is rotated about its center

• Symmetry of a shape when it is reflected
