Rotational Symmetry• If, when you rotate a shape, it looks exactly
the same as it did in its original position, then we say that the shape has rotational symmetry.
• This square has rotational symmetry.
• It looks exactly the same four times in a full turn.• It has rotational symmetry order 4.

Pentominoes
A pentomino is made out of five squares that are connected along at least one edge.
These are NOT pentominoes.
Here is an example of a pentomino.
