Symmetry and TessellationsGoals: By the end of today, you should
be able to . . . 1. Determine whether a figure has line
and/or rotational symmetry.2. Determine whether a tessellation is
regular, semi-regular or neither.3. Construct different types of tessellations
using dot paper.
Line Symmetry
• A figure has line symmetry if you can draw a _______ through the middle of it and each half is a ____________ of the other half.

Goal #1
Line Symmetry
• How do I tell if a figure has line symmetry?
• How do I tell how many lines of symmetry a figure has?
Goal #1
Rotational Symmetry
• If a figure can be ________ less than ____ so that it looks exactly the same as the ________, then it has rotational symmetry.

Goal #1
Rotational Symmetry
• How do I tell if a figure has rotational symmetry?
• How do I tell what the degrees of rotation would be?
90°
180°
Goal #1
Pause to practice Goal #1
• Line Symmetry
1. Does a figure have it?
2. If so, how many lines of symmetry does it have?
• Rotational Symmetry1. Does a figure have
it?2. If so, what are the
degrees of each turn?
Tessellations
• Tessellation- a repeating pattern formed by polygons that have no overlapping or gapping.

Tessellations
• Regular- a tessellation formed by _________ regular polygon.
More regular tesselations• Semi-regular- a
tessellation formed by ______ or more regular polygons.
More semi-regular tesselations• If a tessellation has any
shapes that are not regular polygons, then it is neither.

Goal #2
Pause to practice Goal #2
• Tessellations
1. Is there any overlaps or gaps?
2. If not, what kinds of shapes make up the tesselation?
