Discussion Questions

The diagram below shows how parallelograms, rectangles, rhombuses and squares are related.


A square is both a rectangle and a rhombus.
Rectangles and rhombuses are parallelograms.

We know that:
  • A Rectangle has 2 lines of symmetry and a rotational symmetry of order 2.
  • A Square has 4 lines of symmetry and a rotational symmetry of order 4.

  1. How many line of symmetry does a Parallelogram has? And, what is its order of rotational symmetry?
  2. How many line of symmetry does a Rhombus has? And, what is its order of rotational symmetry?
