3.Symmetry in Art
4.Symmetry in Religious Symbols
5.Symmetry in music
• Rotational symmetry
Symmetry in Nature
• Divide the leaf in half, you will find that one half has the same shape as the other half.
• The snowflake will divide into six half.
• The butterfly will be divided by one line of symmetry.
• Therefore line symmetry divides an object into equal parts.
Symmetry in Architecture
• Symmetry finds its ways into architecture at every scale for examples:-
- from the overall external views.
- through the layout of the individual floor plans.
- down to the design of individual building elements such as intricately caved doors, stained glass windows.
Symmetry in Art
• The concept of symmetry is applied to the design of objects of all shapes and sizes.
• Some examples include beadwork, furniture, masks, musical instruments, and many other endeavors.
Symmetry in Religious Symbols
• Symmetries are often an integral part of the symbols of world religions.
• Some examples are Judaism's Star of David, Christianity's cross, Sikhism's khanda.
Symmetry in Music
• Symmetry has been used as a formal constraint by many composers, such as the arch (swell).
• Symmetry concepts of permutation and invariance were used in classical music.
Rotational Symmetry
An object with rotational symmetry is an object that looks the same after a certain
amount of rotation.
Order 3 Order 6
All objects either have one or more
than one rotational symmetry for eg:-
Order 1 Order 5
Order 4
Order 7
Order 4
