Symmetry Everywhere
Question:
How many axes of symmetry are
there?
Instructions:
1. Put
different picture blocks into the slit under the mirror.
Rotate the picture block to find how many axes of symmetry
it possesses.
2.
The answer is on the back of the picture block.
Why?
Most of the characters we use
in our daily writing do not have axes of symmetry. While
we are very adept at reading these characters, their mirror
images may seem complete stranger to us. On the contary,
objects found in nature are usually endowed with one or
more axes of symmetry. Moreover, the simpler an object
is, the more axes of symmetry it may possess.
