How many lines of symmetry does a regular pentagon have

Five.

What is the special name for the segment that connects the center of a regular polygon to an outer edge to form the height of a triangle

apothem

Constructing a cube with double the volume of another cube using only a straightedge and compass was proven impossible by advanced algebra

True (APEX) - Nini :-* GOOD LUCK .

Given only a compass and straightedge Greek geometers were able to construct any geometric object they wished

False (apex)

A point of symmetry is a point around which a shape can be reflected without changing any of its characteristics

False

Only regular polygons with an odd number of sides are symmetrical

No, regular polygons with an even number of sides are also symmetrical.

For every point on one side of a line of symmetry there is a corresponding point on the other side of the line symmetry

True.

What is the most famous impossible problem from Greek antiquity

trisecting a line

When a line of symmetry divides an image its spells the image into two congruent parts on either side of the line symmetry

true

What does A'B'C'D' mean in geometry

after the original ABCD, the A'B'C'D' means that you have done something to the original points, and they therefore can no longer be called ABCD

What Greek constructions were never accomplished with only a straightedge and a compass

Doubling a cube and trisecting any angle

Which sequence of transformations will result in an image that maps onto itself

reflect across the x-axis and then reflect again over the x-axis

Which of the following describes a rigid motion transformation A enlarging a photo B spinning a spinner C filling a tire with air D slicing a log into sections

Spinning a spinner.

How many lines of symmetry

There are infinitely many lines of symmetry. Every line can be a line of symmetry for a suitable shape.

What is One way to recognize a line of symmetry is to look for a line that divides the original image into

two congruent parts

Is not a rigid motion transformation

dilation (APEX)

If the trapezoid below is reflected across the x-axis what are the coordinates of B'
