Find the order of rotation if the angle of rotation is $45 °$ .

Open in App

Solution

We know that if the angle of rotation is $x °$ then the order of rotation will be = $\frac{360 °}{x °}$
As we have given angle of rotation is $45 °$ .
So using the above formula we have,
Order of rotation = $\frac{360 °}{45 °}$
= $8$
Hence, the order of rotation is $8$ .
