Lines of Symmetry for Regular Polygons
You know that a polygon is a closed figure made of several
The
A polygon is said to be regular if all its sides are of
Thus, an
An equilateral triangle is regular because each of its sides has same length and each of its angles measures
A
If a
A regular hexagon has all its sides equal and each of its angles measures
The regular polygons are symmetrical figures and hence their lines of symmetry are quite interesting,
Each regular polygon has as many lines of symmetry as it has sides. We say, they have multiple lines of symmetry.
In the below given regular polygons, draw their respective axes of symmetry and add in the number of axes possible in the provided blanks
