The question, in short

For two diagrams, one a cross-like figure and one a regular hexagon with a cross inside, state the number of lines of symmetry and the order of rotational symmetry.

Summarised in our own words. Use the official paper for the exact wording and the diagram.

Part (a) · 1 mark

State how many lines of symmetry the cross-like figure with bars and ticks has.

  1. 1Only the vertical line through the centre is a mirror line (the ticks point down)
  2. 2One line of symmetry

Answerone

Part (b) · 1 mark

State the order of rotational symmetry of the regular hexagon containing a cross.

  1. 1The pattern looks the same after a half turn
  2. 2Order of rotational symmetry = two
