A polygon with 14 sides can have at most 14 lines of symmetry. This would occur if the polygon was a regular polygon (i.e. all its sides would have to be equal and all its angles would have to be equal). The lines of symmetry would run between the midpoints of opposite sides and between opposite vertices.

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.
They have the same value.
A triangle has 3 lines of symmetry.

No, a polygon can have fewer lines of symmetry.
Number of lines of symmetry = Number of sides of the regular polygon
A polygon need not have any lines of symmetry. The maximum number of lines of symmetry is attained if the polygon is regular; and this is the number of sides (or vertices) of the polygon. If a regular polygon has an even number of sides, then the lines of symmetry are those joining opposite vertices, and those joining the mid-points of opposite sides. If the polygon has an odd number of sides/vertices, the lines of symmetry are those joining each vertex to the mid-point of the opposite side.
The number of lines of symmetry in a polygon corresponds to the number of sides it has. If a polygon has n sides, then its symmetry will be n lines of symmetry and it will have one point of symmetry. A pentagon has five lines of symmetry, nonagon has 9, n-gon has n lines of symmetry, so on and so forth.

Any polygon with an even number of sides can have two lines of symmetry, but it would have to be irregular.
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.
It will have six lines of symmetry.

Oh, dude, a 14-sided polygon? That's like, a lot of sides. So, the number of lines of symmetry for a regular polygon is equal to the number of sides if it's an even number, and half the number of sides if it's an odd number. So, for a 14-sided polygon, since it's an even number, it would have 14 lines of symmetry.
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.
