Answer

The Ashoka Chakra has 24 spokes spread equally.
24 spokes make 12 pairs.
Line through an opposite pair is a line of symmetry.
Hence, there are 12 lines of symmetry.
Smallest angle of symmetry = 360° ÷ 2 = 30°.
Other angles of symmetry are its multiple up to 360.
Other angles are 60°, 120°, 150°, ………… , 360°. (12 angles in all).
