Show three lines of symmetry?

If your asking what shape has three lines of symmetry, your answer would be an equilateral triangle. You can tell how many lines of symmetry a shape that has all angles of the same measure has by looking at it's angles. Ex., pentagon has five angles--five lines of symmetry; octagon has eight angles, eight lines of symmetry; etc.


What figure has exactly three lines of symmetry?

An equilateral triangle has exactly three lines of symmetry. It is the only shape that contains exactly three lines of symmetry.


How can I Draw 2 lines of symmetry on a triangle?

You cannot. An equilateral triangle has 3 lines of symmetry, an isosceles has one and a scalene none. So there is no triangle with two lines of symmetry. Of course, you could draw only two of the three possible lines of symmetry for an equilateral triangle.

What is the linear relationship between number of sides and number of lines of symmetry?

If you're talking about convex polygons with equal sides (eg. equilateral triangles, squares, pentagons, hexagons, etc.), then the relationship is a very direct one. In those cases, there are as many lines of symmetry as there are points in the polygons. A triangle has three lines of symmetry, a square has four, a pentagon five, etc.


How many lines of symmetry does an equilateral have explain?

An equilateral triangle has three lines of symmetry. Each line of symmetry passes through a vertex and bisects the opposite side, resulting in three equal parts.


How many line of symmetry does a hexagon have?

A hexagon need not have any lines of symmetry. Or, it can have just one line of symmetry. A regular hexagon has six lines of symmetry, including three along the lines bisecting the angles and three along the lines formed by bisecting the sides. A regular hexagon has a rotational order of 6.
