Answer:

The number of reflectional symmetry that a regular hexagon has is:

Six

Explanation:

Reflectional symmetry--

It is a symmetry in which when a line is drawn across the figure then it cuts the figure into two equal halves such that one of the halves is the mirror image of the other i.e. it is a reflection of the other half.

It is also known as the mirror symmetry.

" Also, in a regular polygon the number of reflectional symmetry is equal to the number of sides in a polygon "

Here we have the polygon as regular hexagon.

We know that hexagon has six sides.

This means that the number of reflectional symmetry will be:

six
