Understand the Problem

The question is asking for the characteristics of symmetry in an octagon, specifically how many lines of symmetry it has and what its order of rotational symmetry is.

Answer

A regular octagon has eight lines of symmetry and a rotational symmetry of order eight.

The final answer is a regular octagon has eight lines of symmetry and a rotational symmetry of order eight.

Answer for screen readers

The final answer is a regular octagon has eight lines of symmetry and a rotational symmetry of order eight.

More Information

A regular octagon has a high degree of symmetry with eight equal sides and angles, allowing for multiple symmetrical axes and rotation symmetries.

Tips

Common mistakes include confusing a regular octagon with an irregular one, which affects its symmetry properties. Ensure the octagon is regular to apply these symmetry values accurately.
