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.

No. A polygon can be symmetric but need not be. In fact, the majority of polygons are not symmetrical.

When constructing inscribed polygon?

When constructing an inscribed polygon, you begin by drawing a circle, which will serve as the circumcircle for the polygon. Next, evenly divide the circumference of the circle into the desired number of equal segments, corresponding to the number of sides of the polygon. Finally, connect these points with straight lines to form the inscribed polygon, ensuring that each vertex lies on the circumference of the circle. This method guarantees that the polygon is both regular and symmetrical.


What is a polygon with four sides and no parallel sides?

A shape with four non-parallel sides is an irregular quadrilateral. If the quadrilateral is bilaterally symmetrical, it is a deltoid (kite shape).


How do you identify a regular polygon?

A regular polygon can be identified by its equal side lengths and equal interior angles. Each vertex of a regular polygon is equidistant from the center, making it symmetrical. Additionally, the number of sides determines the type of regular polygon, such as a triangle (3 sides), square (4 sides), or pentagon (5 sides). To confirm regularity, you can measure the sides and angles or use geometric properties.


Can you tell the Names of some natural symmetrical figures?

Circle, ellipse, rectangle, square, parallelogram, rhombus, trapezoid, isosceles triangle, equilateral triangle, any regular polygon.


What kinds of polygons are symmetrical?

All regular polygons A polygon is symmetrical if its sides that cross the line of symmetry are halved by the line of symmetry and if the sides that do not cross the line of symmetry have the same positions in space, the same lengths, and the same angles with their neighboring sides as do the sides on the other side of the line of symmetry. The only symmetrical triangles are isosceles triangles (equilateral triangles are isosceles). The only symmetrical quadrilaterals are squares, rectangles, rhombi (the line of symmetry connects either pair of opposite corners), isosceles trapezoids, and kites.

What regular polygon that has an order of rotational symmetry of 5?

A regular polygon with an order of rotational symmetry of 5 is a regular pentagon. This means that the pentagon can be rotated by multiples of 72 degrees (360 degrees divided by 5) and still look the same. Each of its five sides and angles is equal, contributing to this symmetrical property.
