  4. Circle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circle

    The circle is a highly symmetric shape: every line through the centre forms a line of reflection symmetry, and it has rotational symmetry around the centre for every angle. Its symmetry group is the orthogonal group O(2,R). The group of rotations alone is the circle group T. All circles are similar. [12] A circle circumference and radius are ...
