What prediction can be made about the number lines of symmetry in a polygon that has 6 sides of the same length?
It will have six lines of symmetry.
What are all of the characteristics of a hexagon?
Has 6 sides, This figure is a polygon, Has six 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 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.
How many axes of symmetry does a polygon have?
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.
Is it possible to draw a hexagon with no lines of symmetry?
an irregular hexagon? yes, any polygon with 6 sides
Which polygon has 6 sides and 8 sides?
A polygon with 6 sides is a hexagon and a polygon with 8 sides is an octagon
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 regular polygon have with 16 sides?
It has 16 lines of symmetry.
What is the greatest number of lines of symmetry a polygon with 14 sides can have?
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.
Which polygon has 6 sides?
The polygon that has 6 sides is called a hexagon
What shape has 5 sides and 1 line of symmetry?
polygon!
