What polygon is formed when two equilateral triangles are placed side by side?
square
What is the equation for the number of triangles that can be drawn in a polygon?
Some BasicsA polygon can have as many side as possible, as long as it's not round. Well, a triangle is 3-sided, so if you mean how many sets of three sides, so no. Definition: Triangles of a polygon are the triangles created by drawing line segments from one vertex of a polygon to all the other vertices.AnswerFor a regular polygon having 'n' sides, the number of triangles that can be drawn in it is (n-2). Hence, you can draw 2 triangles in a square, 3 in a pentagon, 4 in a hexagon, etc.For an irregular polygon, this formula may not always hold true.(check the related link)
What do you called 3 side of polygons?
The sides of a polygon do not generally have specific names. Polygons with 3 sides are triangles.
How many triangles can you make on a soccer field?
depends on the side of the triangles?
Is a triangle a small regular polygon?
A regular polygon is any polygon that has sides which are the same length and angles whose measures are equal. An equilateral triangle (also equiangular triangle) is a regular polygon. Other isosceles triangles (equilateral triangles are isosceles, but they are an exception) and scalene triangles are not regular polygons. A side note: Only in a triangle is a polygon regular solely if it is equilateral. (Since an equilateral triangle is equiangular as well). This is NOT always true in other polygons, like quadrilaterals, where it can be equilateral but not necessarily equiangular (a rhombus) or equiangular but not equilateral (a rectangle).
How many triangles are in a 32 side polygon?
A 32 sided polygon is also called a triacontadigon (or triacontakaidigon) or 32-gon has 20 triangles and 12 pentagons.

How many triangles can a 20-gon be made into?
20 isosceles triangles with each base being a side of the 20-gon, and the opposite vertices at the center of the polygon.

Number of triangles in a 32 side polygon?
gghg a regular polygon has a 32 sides. calculate the size of each interior angle.
If you draw 2 equilateral triangles that are congruent and share a side what polygon is formed is it a regular polygon?
it should make a square leaned over

If n equals the number of sides in a polygon what equals the number of trianges within the polygon?
There can be no formula for the number of triangles within the polygon. Any triangle can be split into two by a line from one of the vertices to the opposite side. Thus the number of triangles can be increased by one by simply splitting one triangle. And then THAT triangle can be split in two, and the that one, ...
What is rule in words to find the number of nonoverlapping triangles triangles in a polygon?
Since every triangle can be split into two triangles simply by drawing a line from any vertex to the side opposite that vertex, the answer to the question is that there can be no rule to find a number that is infinite.
