A polygon made from 2 or more polygons is also a polygon. The number of sides in the resulting polygon is not a straightforward computation. For example, a triangle and a quadrilateral can result in a shape that is a quadrilateral. See my brilliant diagram below. Ignore the dots, they are just for getting the spacing approximately correct.

Or if a triangle is placed on top of a square, you can get a 12-sides shape. Polygons of all intermediate number of sides are possible.
Yes it is shape it has 5 sides * * * * * A polygon is a 2-dimensional shape with 3 or more sides that are straight lines. Not sure what a polygon "on a shape" is.
Polygon is a figure having more than 2 sides.
is a polygon.
square
A polygon is a shape with 3 or more sides therefore a 2 sided shape isn't a polygon
No. A polygon must have at least three line segments.

A polygon can have any whole number of sides more than 2.
A polygon is made up only of line segments. If a 2-dimensional closed figure has even one curve line, then it is not a polygon.
A closed 2-dimensional figure bounded by straight lines. A polygon can have three or more sides.
