What is the number of lines of symmetry in a regular polygon to the number of sides?
They have the same value.
How many lines of symmetry does a plolygon have?
It depends on how many sides that it has and whether of not it is regular (all the lines of the polygon are of equal length if it is a regular polygon). For regular polygons, the number of symmetry lines is the number of sides if number of sides is an odd number. Otherwise, the number of symmetry lines is double the number of sides. A square has 4 sides and 8 symmetry lines; a triangle has 3 sides and 3 symmetry lines.
How does the number of sides in a regular polygon relate to the number of line of symmetry in it?
The two numbers are the same.
What regular polygons have a line of symmetry that is also a diagonal of the polygon?
almost all even number of sided polygons, regular has to be
What is the rule for the number lines of symmetry of any regular polygon?
Number of lines of symmetry = Number of sides of the regular polygon

How many lines of symmetry does a polygon has?
A polygon need not have any lines of symmetry. The maximum number of lines of symmetry is attained if the polygon is regular; and this is the number of sides (or vertices) of the polygon. If a regular polygon has an even number of sides, then the lines of symmetry are those joining opposite vertices, and those joining the mid-points of opposite sides. If the polygon has an odd number of sides/vertices, the lines of symmetry are those joining each vertex to the mid-point of the opposite side.

What relationship exist between the number of sides on a regular polygon and the number of lines of symmetry?
They are the same.

Which plane figure has a diagonal that is also a line symmetry?
The most obvious one is the square. But it seems to me thatit's true for any regular polygon with an even number of sides.
What regular polygons have a line of symmetry that is also a diagonal of the polygon?
almost all even number of sided polygons, regular has to be
Will the number of lines of symmetry for a polygon always be the same as the number of vertices?
No, a polygon can have fewer lines of symmetry.
What are the attributes of a polygon?
A polygon has sides A polygon can have any number of side A polygon can not be curved so a circle is not a polygon Regular Polygon Has congruent sides and angles Has lines of symmetry Irregular Polygon Doesn't have any equal sides or angles Doesn't have any lines of symmetry
How many line of symmetry does a regular polygon with x sides have?
The equation is S=L where S = number of sides and L = lines of symmetry.
