Step-by-step solution

2 steps
  1. Understand rotational symmetry of order 2.

    Rotational symmetry of order 2 means that a figure looks identical after a rotation of 180∘180^\circ about its center. For a square grid, the center of rotation is the geometric center of the grid.

  2. Analyze the 4x4 grid.

    A 4x4 grid has 16 squares. The center of the grid lies at the intersection of the lines dividing the grid into four 2x2 quadrants. This means the center of rotation is not located within any single square.
    If we label the squares by coordinates (r,c)(r, c) where rr is the row number (1 to 4) and cc is the column number (1 to 4
