GCSE Bitesize was launched in January 1998, covering seven subjects. For each subject, a one- or two-hour long TV programme would be broadcast overnight in the BBC Learning Zone block, and supporting material was available in books and on the BBC website. At the time, only around 9% of UK households had access to the internet at home.
Rotational symmetry, also known as radial symmetry in geometry, is the property a shape has when it looks the same after some rotation by a partial turn. An object's degree of rotational symmetry is the number of distinct orientations in which it looks exactly the same for each rotation.
A drawing of a butterfly with bilateral symmetry, with left and right sides as mirror images of each other.. In geometry, an object has symmetry if there is an operation or transformation (such as translation, scaling, rotation or reflection) that maps the figure/object onto itself (i.e., the object has an invariance under the transform).

The tetrahedral group of order 12, rotational symmetry group of the regular tetrahedron. It is isomorphic to A 4. The conjugacy classes of T are: identity; 4 × rotation by 120°, order 3, cw; 4 × rotation by 120°, order 3, ccw; 3 × rotation by 180°, order 2; The octahedral group of order 24, rotational symmetry group of the cube and the ...
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.
This figure has four symmetry operations: the identity operation, one twofold axis of rotation, and two nonequivalent mirror planes. D 3 , D 4 etc. are the symmetry groups of the regular polygons . Within each of these symmetry types, there are two degrees of freedom for the center of rotation, and in the case of the dihedral groups, one more ...

A high-index reflective subgroup is the prismatic octahedral symmetry, [4,3,2] (), order 96, subgroup index 4, (Du Val #44 (O/C 2;O/C 2) *, Conway ± 1 / 24 [O×O].2). The truncated cubic prism has this symmetry with Coxeter diagram and the cubic prism is a lower symmetry construction of the tesseract, as .
