Is a parallelogram symmetrical? Why or why not?

How can you find the number of lines of symmetry in a regular hexagon?

A parallelogram is NOT symmetrical. When folded along the diagonal line it does not result in the same shape in two halves.

Hi, I'm a regular polygon that has the same number of sides as the number of multiplication tables that a high schooler should have memorized, and my angle of rotation is the same number that Messi wore while playing for PSG. What is my Angle of Rotation?

The answer for this question would be 30, because the multiplication tables you should memorize in High School are the ones from 1-12, which means that the polygon has 12 sides. This means that to get the angle of rotation of the polygon, you should divide 360 by 12 which is 30 degrees. Messi's number wasn't important (:

What shape is it? How many lines of symmetry does it have? What’s its interior angles?

How can you determine the number of lines of symmetry in a regular dodecagon?


This shape is a Pentadecagon or Pentakaidecagon. It has 15 lines of symmetry. It has interior angles of 156.

First, you must know what a dodecagon is. A dodecagon has 12 sides and 12 angles, and you can figure this out by looking at the first part of the word. The Greek word, “dodeka” means twelve. And then you determine the lines of symmetry.

What is the rule for rotating 90 degrees clockwise around the origin, and reflecting across the x axis?

(Combined - use point (2,3) to test your combination)
