A line through the midpoint of each side and through the midpoint of each opposite side will create five lines of reflection that carry a regular pentagon onto itself.

A line through each vertex and through the opposite vertex and then through each side’s midpoint and through the opposite side’s midpoint will create five lines of reflection that will carry a regular pentagon onto itself.
A line through each vertex and through the opposite vertex and then through each side’s midpoint and through the opposite side’s midpoint will create five lines of reflection that will carry a regular pentagon onto itself.
A regular pentagon does not have any lines of reflection because it has an odd number of sides.

The correct response is:
A line drawn through each vertex and through the midpoint of the opposite side will create five lines of reflection that will carry a regular pentagon onto itself.
This is true because a regular pentagon has five lines of symmetry, each passing through a vertex and the midpoint of the opposite side.
