Question
how can a regular hexagon be folded to show that it has reflectional symmetry?
fold the hexagon along a line from a vertex to the midpoint of an opposite side.
fold the hexagon along a line connecting the two midpoints of adjacent sides.
fold the hexagon along a line that bisects two vertex angles.
fold the hexagon along a line that creates a right angle at a vertex.
A regular hexagon has multiple lines of symmetry. Folding it along a line that bisects two vertex - angles will result in one half of the hexagon perfectly overlapping the other half, demonstrating reflectional symmetry. Folding along a line from a vertex to the mid - point of an opposite side also shows symmetry, but the question asks for a general way to show reflectional symmetry. Folding along a line connecting mid - points of adjacent sides and a line that creates a right angle at a vertex does not show the reflectional symmetry of the hexagon.
