Symmetry, NCERT NOTES, Class 6

 

Symmetry
Introduction to Symmetry

When figures have equally balanced proportions, they are said to be symmetrical.

Bilateral symmetry
If a figure is divided into two halves by only one line and these halves overlap each other completely, then the figure is said to have bilateral symmetry.
Example: A butterfly shows bilateral symmetry.


Line symmetry
A figure has line symmetry if a line can be drawn dividing the figure into two symmetrical parts. The line is called a line of symmetry.
Example: The dotted lines in the following figures show line symmetry.


 
Lines of symmetry

A figure can have any number of lines of symmetry passing through it. Some can have one, two or even multiple lines of symmetry. 
Example of single line of symmetry: A door lock.

Example of two lines of symmetry: A rectangle.

Example of multiple lines of symmetry (two or more): An equilateral triangle.
Reflection symmetry
Reflection symmetry is very similar to line symmetry except for the change in orientation.

For example, when you view yourself in the mirror, your right hand becomes the left hand in the mirror.

 
Point symmetry

Point symmetry exists when a figure is drawn around a single central point.
It is for figures having a point through which a symmetry can be established. This point is called centre of symmetry.
For example, hour glass shows point symmetry.

Kaleidoscope

A kaleidoscope uses mirrors to produce images that have several lines of symmetry.

Usually, two mirror strips forming a V-shape are used.
The angle between the mirrors determines number of lines of symmetry.
The figure below shows pattern formed by a kaleidoscope.

TOWN PLANNING IN INDUS VALLEY ➡

  ⚫TOWN PLANNING IN INDUS VALLEY ➡ It was all about how they planned their cities. The cities were divided into two parts. One part smaller and the other part bigger. The smaller part was raised above the ground about 12 meters height and it had massive walls surrounding it. The walls protected it from floods. It seems like a proper fort, Na? The archaeologists also thought so. That’s why they named it Citadel. Most of the important people like the kings, the royal families, the priests, they all lived here. The other part was bigger in size and it had all the residential buildings and the public facilities. It was the place for the common people and it was situated below the Citadel. So we call it the lower town and not just that the cities was guarded so well that they have watch towers made of stone to keep a watch on enemies. So that the cities was not only protected from flood but also from any attacks. The Harappan cities had an awesome system of water supply. There was no discri

ALL ABOUT PINHOLE CAMERA, NCERT NOTES, CLASS 6

  PINHOLE CAMERA The pinhole camera is based on the principle that light travels in a straight line. Construction of a Pinhole Camera- To construct a pinhole camera follow the steps described below - Take a small box like a shoebox. Paint the box entirely in black to light-proof it Appropriately determine the distance between the film of plastic or ground glass and light source and make a circular pinhole on the bottom of the box Make a shutter by cutting a piece of thick black chart paper. Use sturdy duct tape to hold the shutter in place Use a light adhesive to control the shutter flap and light entering the box Make a viewfinder out of cardboard. Pinhole Camera Image Characteristics- A real image is obtained as the image is obtained on the screen. The size of the image obtained is comparatively smaller than the actual object. The image is inverted on the x-axis as well as on the y-axis. The image can be used in the analysis of the rectilinear propagation of the light. Uses of a P

What is mucilage, how does it emerge?

  What is mucilage, how does it emerge ? Mucilage or "sea snot" is the result of the overgrowth of microscopic algae called "Phytoplankton", which constitutes the first step of biological production in the sea. The thick, mucus-like slimy layer contains a variety of microorganisms.  Mucilage formation, which is a secretion released into seawater in response to changes and anomalies in sea conditions, requires a stagnant sea as well as a high amount of nitrogen and phosphorus contents.  Mucilage, which is a part of a natural process under normal conditions, can expand excessively when the weather gets warmer in the spring months and it finds the right temperature and light.  However, as in the case of the Sea of Marmara, experts say the structure of the sea, as well as intense pollution and waste, and global climate change, are the main reasons beyond such intense mucilage formation.
