    Option C

    Step-by-step explanation:

    To find : which figure has exactly five lines of symmetry

    A) Regular hexagon (contain 6 sides) : A regular hexagon has 6 lines of symmetry.

    B) Square (contain 4 sides) : A square has 4 lines of symmetry.

    C) Regular Pentagon (contain 5 sides) : A regular pentagon has 5 lines of symmetry.

    D) Equilateral triangle (contain 3 sides) : An equilateral triangle has 3 lines of symmetry.

    Therefore, Option C regular pentagon has exactly 5 lines of symmetry.

    D has three lines of symmetry.

    C has 5 lines of symmetry

    B has 4 lines of symmetry

    A has 6 lines of symmetry.

    Remark

    The two diagrams below show two shapes.

    1. The one on the right, shows how a regular pentagon could have 5 lines of symmetry. Notice how one of them comes from the vertex to the middle of the side opposite.

    2. the square was put in just so you could see what a line of symmetry is. The diagonal shows that you could fold one opposite corner to the other creating one of two lines of symmetry and the other line goes across the middle of of one side of the square to the middle of the other side.
