  2. Ambigram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ambigram

    The lowercase letters o, s, x, and z are rotationally symmetric, while pairs such as b/q, d/p, n/u, and in some typefaces a/e, h/y and m/w, are rotations of each other. Among the lowercase letters "l" is unique since its symmetry is broken if it is close to a reference character which establishes a clear x-height. When rotated around the middle ...

  3. Rotational symmetry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotational_symmetry

    Rotational symmetry of order n, also called n-fold rotational symmetry, or discrete rotational symmetry of the n th order, with respect to a particular point (in 2D) or axis (in 3D) means that rotation by an angle of ⁠ ⁠ (180°, 120°, 90°, 72°, 60°, 51 3 ⁄ 7 °, etc.) does not change the object. A "1-fold" symmetry is no symmetry (all ...

  4. Symmetry group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symmetry_group

    C 1 is the trivial group containing only the identity operation, which occurs when the figure is asymmetric, for example the letter "F". C 2 is the symmetry group of the letter "Z", C 3 that of a triskelion, C 4 of a swastika, and C 5, C 6, etc. are the symmetry groups of similar swastika-like figures with five, six, etc. arms instead of four.

  5. Symmetry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symmetry

    Symmetry (left) and asymmetry (right) A spherical symmetry group with octahedral symmetry. The yellow region shows the fundamental domain. A fractal-like shape that has reflectional symmetry, rotational symmetry and self-similarity, three forms of symmetry. This shape is obtained by a finite subdivision rule.

  6. Symmetry (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symmetry_(geometry)

    The triskelion has 3-fold rotational symmetry. Rotational symmetry is symmetry with respect to some or all rotations in m-dimensional Euclidean space. Rotations are direct isometries, which are isometries that preserve orientation. [17] Therefore, a symmetry group of rotational symmetry is a subgroup of the special Euclidean group E + (m).

  7. Anal fissure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anal_fissure

    Most anal fissures are caused by stretching of the anal mucous membrane beyond its capability. [3] Superficial or shallow anal fissures look much like a paper cut, and may be hard to detect upon visual inspection; they will generally self-heal within a couple of weeks. However, some anal fissures become chronic and deep and will not heal.

  8. Icositetragon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Icositetragon

    The regular icositetragon has Dih 24 symmetry, order 48. There are 7 subgroup dihedral symmetries: (Dih 12, Dih 6, Dih 3), and (Dih 8, Dih 4, Dih 2 Dih 1), and 8 cyclic group symmetries: (Z 24, Z 12, Z 6, Z 3), and (Z 8, Z 4, Z 2, Z 1). These 16 symmetries can be seen in 22 distinct symmetries on the icositetragon. John Conway labels these by a ...

  9. Human anus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_anus

    With anal sex, the anus can play a role in sexuality. Attitudes toward anal sex vary, and it is illegal in some countries. [5] The anus is often considered a taboo part of the body, [5] and is known by many, usually vulgar, slang terms. Some sexually transmitted infections including HIV/AIDS and anal warts can be spread via anal sex.
