            You must have seen and made rangoli designs. Here, Shakshi has sketched a design
            as shown below.

            Her mother asks her to colour the rangoli design such that when it is turned halfway, it
            looks the same. Can you help her?

















            Shakshi thinks for a while and colours the design as shown below.

















            Does it look the same when turned halfway?

            Rangoli designs are combinations of patterns based on designs or colours. They usually

            have symmetry too. These designs are made occasionally all around in our country.
            Here are a few examples.                                                           21 st
