Let us take a point S on one end of the given figure. Rotating by 180°, S comes at other end and then again rotating by 180°, it comes at its original position.
∴ Order of rotational symmetry = \(\frac{360^{\circ}}{180^{\circ}}=2\)

NCERT Solutions for Class 7 Maths Chapter 14 Symmetry Ex 14.2 4
Let us take any point S in figure (1). It takes two rotations to come back to its original position.
∴ Order of rotational symmetry = \(\frac{360^{\circ}}{180^{\circ}}=2\)

NCERT Solutions for Class 7 Maths Chapter 14 Symmetry Ex 14.2 5
Let us mark any vertex of the given figure. It takes three rotations to come back to its original shape.
∴ Order of rotational symmetry = \(\frac{360^{\circ}}{120^{\circ}}=3\)

NCERT Solutions for Class 7 Maths Chapter 14 Symmetry Ex 14.2 6
Order of rotational symmetry = \(\frac{360^{\circ}}{90^{\circ}}=4\)

NCERT Solutions for Class 7 Maths Chapter 14 Symmetry Ex 14.2 8
∴ Order of rotational symmetry = \(\frac{360^{\circ}}{90^{\circ}}=4\)

(f) The given figure is a regular pentagon which can take one rotation at an angle of 72°.
∴ Order of rotational symmetry = \(\frac{360^{\circ}}{72^{\circ}}=5\)

(g) The given figure requires six rotations each through an angle of 60°
∴ Order of rotational symmetry = \(\frac{360^{\circ}}{60^{\circ}}=6\)

(h) The given figure requires three rotations, each through an angle of 120°.
∴ Order of rotational symmetry = \(\frac{360^{\circ}}{120^{\circ}}=3\)
