Symmetries and Patterns Flashcards
A figure that has two sides that are mirror images of one another.
SYMMETRY
Also, refer to as the Lines of Reflection
LINE OF SYMMETRY
A line that divides a shape or object into two identical halves
LINE OF SYMMETRY
What are the types of symmetry and patterns?
BILATERAL
RADIAL
FIBONACCI
FRACTALS
FRIEZE
An object has two sides that are mirror images of each other
BILATERAL SYMMETRY
An object has center point and numerous lines of symmetry could be drawn at equal angle intervals.
RADIAL SYMMETRY
The sum of two consecutive terms gives the succeeding term. The same first two digit.
THE FIBONACCI SEQUENCE
It is considered the most beautiful and important of quantities.
GOLDEN RATIO
A curve or geometric figure, each part of which has the
same statistical character as the whole.
FRACTALS
A pattern that consists of repeated copies, along a line, of a single figure or block.
FRIEZE PATTERNS
What are the isometries that generate frieze patterns?
Identity
Rotation
Translation
Reflection
Vertical Reflection
Glide Reflection
These are sequences or arrangements of numbers that follow a certain rule or set of rules.
