Question
Which of the following figures have more than one angle of symmetry?
Answer

The given figure comes back to its original shape when we rotate it about 90°, 180°, 270° and 360°. Thus, the given figure has 4 angles of symmetry (90°, 180°, 270° and 360°).
The figure comes back to its original shape only after 360° rotation. So, the figure has only one angle of symmetry i.e., 360°.
The given figure comes back to its original shape when we rotate it about 120°, 240° and 360°. Thus, the given figure has 3 angles of symmetry (120°, 240° and 360°).
The given figure comes back to its original shape when we rotate it about 90°, 180°, 270° and 360°. Thus, the given figure has 4 angles of symmetry (90°, 180°, 270° and 360°).
The given figure comes back to its original shape when we rotate it about 90°, 180°, 270° and 360°. Thus, the given figure has 4 angles of symmetry (90°, 180°, 270° and 360°).
The given figure comes back to its original shape when we rotate it about 72°, 144°, 216°, 288° and 360°. Thus, the given figure has 5 angles of symmetry (72°, 144°, 216°, 288° and 360°).
The given figure comes back to its original shape when we rotate it about a complete turn, i.e., at 360°. Thus, the figure does not have
