vinzz	question about order of reflections of a orthogonal group Tweet i know that if i am finding the order of rotations of certain element like rot(n), the order will be (2 (pi) ) / n. But if I want to find the order of reflections of certain element like ref(n), is there any formula is find the order of it?
