Picturing symmetry

A Piece of the Pi: mathematics explained • 24 implied HN points • 04 Mar 24
🔬 Science Symmetry Mathematics Group Theory
  1. The order in which symmetries are applied can significantly affect the final result, as shown through reflections and rotations of a square.
  2. Using Cayley graphs can help visualize and calculate products of symmetries.
  3. In symmetry operations, combining reflections and rotations follows specific rules, similar to adding odd and even numbers. Grouping rotations and reflections can simplify understanding complex symmetries.
