Classification

The defining acreage of a clear is its inherent symmetry, by which we beggarly that beneath assertive 'operations' the clear charcoal unchanged. For example, alternating the clear 180° about a assertive arbor may aftereffect in an diminutive agreement that is identical to the aboriginal configuration. The clear is again said to accept a bifold rotational agreement about this axis. In accession to rotational symmetries like this, a clear may accept symmetries in the anatomy of mirror planes and translational symmetries, and additionally the alleged "compound symmetries," which are a aggregate of adaptation and rotation/mirror symmetries. A abounding allocation of a clear is accomplished back all of these inherent symmetries of the clear are identified.5
