How many lines of symmetry does a plolygon have?
It depends on how many sides that it has and whether of not it is regular (all the lines of the polygon are of equal length if it is a regular polygon). For regular polygons, the number of symmetry lines is the number of sides if number of sides is an odd number. Otherwise, the number of symmetry lines is double the number of sides. A square has 4 sides and 8 symmetry lines; a triangle has 3 sides and 3 symmetry lines.
What is the number of lines of symmetry in a regular polygon to the number of sides?
They have the same value.
Are there the same amount of lines of symmetry as there are sides of a regular polygon?
Yes.Yes.Yes.Yes.
Why is a regular pentagon a polygon?
A regular pentagon has straight sides and is closed so its a polygon. Any shape with straight sides and is closed is a polygon. Example O (circle) has curved lines so its not a polygon L (square) is open therefore it is not a polygon.
How many lines of symmerty does a regular polygon and what does it look like?
It depends on how many sides the polygon has: An octogon has 8 lines of symmetry, a pentagon has 5......
