A 5-sided polygon is called a pentagon. You can draw up to 5 diagonals in a pentagon.
A 4-sided polygon has 2 diagonals. A 5-sided polygon, 5. 6-sided, 9. By induction, an n-sided polygon has 'n*(n-3)/2' diagonals. "n" is how many sides a shape has. so, (7)*(7-3)/2 now we have, 7*4/2 so, 28/2 = 14 Therefore, a 7-sided polygon would have 14 diagonals.

The five sided Polygon has 5 diagonals
For an n-sided polygon, the number of diagonals is 1+2+3+....+(n-4)+2(n-3). For a nine-sided polygon, there are 1+2+3+4+5+2(6)=27 diagonals.
8+7+6+5+4+3+2+1 = 36 diagonals
The number of diagonals in an n-sided polygon is given by nC2 - n (where n is the number of sides of the polygon) or in the expanded form: factorial (n) _______________________ {factorial (2) * factorial (n-2)} substituting (n = 6) for a hexagon we get the number of diagonals as 9. Similarly, substituting (n=5) for a pentagon we get the number of diagonals as 5.
A five sided pentagon has 5 diagonals
There are 3 triangles inside a 5 sided pentagon polygon
20 diagonals For any n-sided polygon, the formula for the number of diagonals is (n/2) x (n-3), so for an octagon it is (8/2) x (8-3) = 4 x 5 = 20.
A pentagon is a 5 sided figure.
