A regular pentagon has five lines of symmetry, but a specific type of pentagon known as an irregular pentagon can have only two lines of symmetry. An example would be a pentagon where two sides are equal in length, and the angles opposite these sides are equal, creating reflectional symmetry across those two lines. However, the specific arrangement would affect the overall symmetry, so not all irregular pentagons will have exactly two lines of symmetry.

How does a pentagon have 5 lines of symmetry?

The Pentagon has 5 lines of symmetry quite simply, actually. See, say you made one line straight through the pentagon at every vertex, right? Well, once you do that, you have 3 lines of symmetry in total, right? Now, say you make another 2 lines of symmetry, this time right through the center of each side. In total, this would make 5.

Has a triangle got 2 lines of symmetry and 2 lines of rotational symmetry?

First of all, your grammar is terrible. The question should be "Does a triangle have 2 lines of symmetry and 2 lines of rotational symmetry? and the answer is no. A triangle can not have 2 lines of rotational symmetry, because you only rotate the image, you do not use any lines.
