Q. What is regular symmetry?
If all the sides and angles of a polygon are equal then it is said to be a regular polygon. Like the equilateral triangle, square etc. All the regular polygons are symmetrical shapes. In the regular polygon, the number of lines of symmetry is the same as the number of its sides.
Q. What rotational symmetries does a regular pentagon have?
We know that a regular pentagon has 5 sides. Hence, it will have 5 lines of symmetry and its order of rotational symmetry will be 5.
Q. What are the rotational symmetries of a regular hexagon?
A regular hexagon has six rotational symmetries (rotational symmetry of order six) and six reflection symmetries (six lines of symmetry), making up the dihedral group D6. The longest diagonals of a regular hexagon, connecting diametrically opposite vertices, are twice the length of one side.
Q. How many symmetries does a octagon have?
11 symmetries
Symmetry of octagon The 11 symmetries of a regular octagon. Lines of reflections are blue through vertices, purple through edges, and gyration orders are given in the center. Vertices are colored by their symmetry position. The regular octagon has Dih8 symmetry, order 16.
Q. How many symmetries does a regular N sided polygon have?
A regular polygon of 9 sides has 9 Lines of Symmetry. A regular polygon of 10 sides has 10 Lines of Symmetry. A regular polygon of “n” sides has “n” Lines of Symmetry.
Q. How many symmetries does a pentagon have?
5 lines of symmetry
Line symmetry in regular polygons A regular pentagon has 5 sides and 5 lines of symmetry.

Q. What is the meaning of a regular polygon?
Regular polygons. In Euclidean geometry, a regular polygon is a polygon that is equiangular (all angles are equal in measure) and equilateral (all sides have the same length). Regular polygons may be either convex or star.
Q. What makes a polygon regular?
A polygon is regular when all angles are equal and all sides are equal (otherwise it is “irregular”).
Q. What is the definition of regular polygon?
In Euclidean geometry, a regular polygon is a polygon that is equiangular (all angles are equal in measure) and equilateral (all sides have the same length).
Q. How many sides does a regular polygon?
The most familiar polygons are the triangle, the rectangle, and the square. A regular polygon is one that has equal sides. Polygons also have diagonals, which are segments that join two vertices and are not sides. The table lists all the polygons having up to 10 sides.
