hexagon
* * * * *
Only if the hexagon is regular. Also, it can be a polygon with 6*k sides where k is an integer.
It will have six lines of symmetry.
Has 6 sides, This figure is a polygon, Has six lines of symmetry.
A regular polygon with x sides has x lines of symmetry. Each line of symmetry passes through a vertex and the midpoint of the opposite side. For example, a regular hexagon has 6 lines of symmetry, one for each pair of opposite sides. The formula for calculating the number of lines of symmetry in a regular polygon is equal to the number of sides x.
A regular polygon with 32 sides has 32 lines of symmetry. Each line of symmetry passes through a vertex and the midpoint of the opposite side or through the midpoints of two opposite sides. This symmetry results from the equal length and angles of all sides and vertices in the 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
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.
A polygon need not have any axes of symmetry. It can have at most n axes where n is the number of sides that the polygon has.
an irregular hexagon? yes, any polygon with 6 sides
A polygon with 12 sides, also known as a dodecagon, has 12 lines of symmetry. Each line of symmetry can be drawn through a vertex and the midpoint of the opposite side or through the midpoints of opposite sides. This symmetry reflects the regularity of the dodecagon, assuming it is a regular polygon.
Number of lines of symmetry = Number of sides of the regular polygon
Yes, in a regular polygon, the number of sides is directly related to the number of lines of symmetry. A regular polygon with ( n ) sides has exactly ( n ) lines of symmetry. Each line of symmetry can be drawn through a vertex and the midpoint of the opposite side or through the midpoints of two opposite sides, reflecting the polygon across these lines.
A polygon with 14 sides can have at most 14 lines of symmetry. This would occur if the polygon was a regular polygon (i.e. all its sides would have to be equal and all its angles would have to be equal). The lines of symmetry would run between the midpoints of opposite sides and between opposite vertices.
