Look at a shape and see if you can see that two halves mirror each other. To check, get a mirror and put it along this line. If the shape still looks the same using the mirror you have a line of symmetry. You can also trace half of the shape, turn the tracing paper over, put it on the other half of the shape and check it is the same.
Yes another way to do it is think REFLECTION. If they are exactly the same, you have a line of symmetry!
yeah babes!! i like to suck on my hairy pen, it fell in my toilet. :)
The answer depends on what information you do have.
an irregular polygon
No, a polygon can have fewer lines of symmetry.
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.
A scalene triangle has no axis of symmetry.
Regular polygon Equilateral polygon Polygon with rotational symmetry
Number of lines of symmetry = Number of sides of the regular polygon
A regular Undegon (11 sided polygon) has 11 lines of symmetry. It also has an order of rotation symmetry of 11.

As the name suggests, they are polygons that have one or more lines of symmetry or rotational symmetry of order two or more. A symmetric polygon is not the same as a regular polygon.
It depends on what type of polygon.
