Symmetry

All motions in space can be described as a combination of these symmetries:

Reflection – A Flip about a Line.Rotation- A turn about a fixed point and an angle.Translation- A slide in particular direction and of a particular distance.Glide Reflection- a reflection and a slide.

But Mostly it is the Area of Mathematics that connects Mathematicswith Art and Beauty.

In "Symmetry and Human Facial Attractiveness”[ it is posited again that symmetry may act as a marker of phenotypic and genetic quality and is preferred during mate selection in a variety of species. Measures of human body symmetry correlate with attractiveness, but studies manipulating human face images report a preference for asymmetry. These results may reflect unnatural feature shapes and changes in skin textures introduced by image processing. When the shape of facial features is varied (with skin textures held constant), increasing symmetry of face shape increases ratings of attractiveness for both male and female faces. These findings imply facial symmetry may have a positive impact on mate selection in humans. This, and other recent scientific findings, have been tested empirically on perceived "beautiful people" in Hollywood and researchers found that on a percentage basis the highest rating of symmetry was achieved by actress Cate Blanchett
