complete the sentence to make a true statement about the symmetry of a regular polygon.
a regular polygon with ten sides does have rotational symmetry and choose have reflectional symmetry.
Step1: Recall symmetry properties of regular polygons
A regular polygon with \(n\) sides has rotational symmetry. The order of rotational symmetry of a regular polygon is \(n\). For a decagon (\(n = 10\)), it can be rotated by \(\frac{360^{\circ}}{10}=36^{\circ}\) and its image will coincide with the original polygon. So it has rotational symmetry.
Step2: Recall reflectional - symmetry properties
A regular polygon with \(n\) sides has \(n\) lines of reflection. A regular decagon has 10 lines of reflection. So it has reflectional symmetry.
