3. how many lines of symmetry are in a 8-sided snowflake?
10, 12, 8, 16
1. how many lines of symmetry are in a 6-sided snowflake?
10, 11, 12, or 6
if you wanted to make hearts on your snowflake,, which sides of the right triangle would you have to draw half of
the heart?
a. just the hypotenuse, b. just the top side, c. just the right side, or d. both the hypotenuse and the right side??
please, please, please, please help me........
my answers so far are
3. 8 lines of symmetry
1. 6 lines of symmetry
the last one- im not sure
um I don’t really know and none of these answers are helpful but like 💀💀🤨🤨🤨🗿👀💀
To determine the number of lines of symmetry in a snowflake, you need to understand what symmetry is. An object has symmetry if it can be divided into two identical halves that match each other when folded or flipped. Each line that divides an object into two identical halves is called a line of symmetry.
1. For a 6-sided snowflake, you can draw an equilateral triangle to represent it. An equilateral triangle has three sides of equal length. Since each side is identical, you can fold the triangle along any of these sides and see that it matches perfectly. Therefore, a 6-sided snowflake has 3 lines of symmetry. The answer is 3.
Now let's move on to the 8-sided snowflake:
3. An 8-sided snowflake can be represented by an octagon. To find the number of lines of symmetry in an octagon, you need to consider the properties of an octagon. An octagon has eight sides of equal length.
To visualize the lines of symmetry, imagine dividing the octagon into two halves. You can start by drawing a line connecting two opposite vertices of the octagon. This line divides the octagon into two equal halves. Repeat this process by connecting the other pairs of opposite vertices. You will discover that you can divide the octagon into 8 halves that match each other. Each of these halves contains a line of symmetry.
So, an 8-sided snowflake has 8 lines of symmetry. The answer is 8.
Regarding making hearts on your snowflake using a right triangle:
In a right triangle, one angle is equal to 90 degrees (a right angle). One of the sides of the triangle is the hypotenuse, which is the longest side and directly opposite the right angle.
To create a heart shape, you would need to draw half of it using the right triangle. To do this, you would draw half of the heart shape on the hypotenuse side of the right triangle. Since the triangle is half of the heart, you would only need to draw one side of the hypotenuse to complete the heart shape.
So, the answer is (c) just the right side.
sorry i messed up and it displayed my "name" on the subject
#3 --> 16, because you can rotate it by rotations of multiples of 60, in addition, you could also flip the snowflake along the axes of rotational symmetry
#4 --> 12, same reasoning as before
