Full solution stays hidden until you ask for it.
1. For a regular n-gon, the number of reflection lines is n.
2. If n is odd, each line goes through a vertex and opposite side midpoint.
3. If n is even, lines alternate vertex-to-vertex and side-midpoint-to-side-midpoint.
Use the worked steps, then substitute the final answer back into the original relationship to confirm it satisfies the prompt.
