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.

It is a regular pentagon!
Oh, dude, a regular hexagon has six sides, so it has six lines of symmetry. Each line of symmetry represents a different way you can rotate the hexagon and have it look the same. So, the order of rotational symmetry for a regular hexagon is 6. Like, it's symmetry, but make it hexagonal.

All polygon sides are segments of lines.
An ISOSCELES TRiangle. The line of symmetry is from the angle of the two equal adjacent sides, to the mid-point of the NON-equal side.
