Are the angle bisectors of a regular polygon sometimes concurrent?
The angle bisectors of a regular polygon are always concurrent. And the point that they meet at is also the meeting point of the perpendicular bisectors of the sides. If it is a polygon with an odd nmber of sides, the "medians" [line from vertex to mid-point of opposite side] and "altitudes" [perpendicular from vertex to opposite side] will also meet at the same point.
What polygon has no sides?
A circle could be considered to have "no sides" in theory, however under this definition it is not a polygon. Also, a circle could be considered to have infinite sides. You could consider a point to be a no-sided polygon, but it's a stretch.
What is the corner in geometry?
In geometry, a corner refers to the point where two lines or line segments meet. It is the intersection point of two sides of a polygon or the meeting point of two edges of a polyhedron. A corner is also known as a vertex.
Is a peace sign a polygon?
No it is not.A polygon is an enclosed plane area whose boundaries comprise straight lines. A peace sign is a set of 4 areas, not just one. Also, it contains a curved boundary.

Why do you subtract 2 from n to find the sum of interior angles?
This has to do with the way in which the sum of the angles is derived. First you select a point inside the polygon and then join that point to each of the vertices. For a polygon with n sides, this gives rise to n triangles. The sum of the 3 angles of any triangle is 180 degrees. So the sum of the angles of all the triangles is n*180 degrees. Now, the "outer" angles of these triangles correspond to the interior angles of the polygon. But the sum also includes the angles formed arounf the central point. The sum of all the angles around this central point is 360 degrees. This is not part of the sum of the interior angles of the polygon and so must be subtracted. Thus, the interior angles of a polygon sum to n*180 - 360 degrees or 180*(n- 2) degrees.
How does condensation get inside a gas line?
The gas in the line contains a proportion of water vapour (which is also a gas). When the gasses in the line cool below the dew point for the gas water vapour mixture, water condenses out of the gasses inside the gas pipe.
The point that is equidistant from all vertices of the regular polygon?
The centroid or centre of gravity. It will also be the point where the bisectors of the angles, and the perpendicular bisectors of the sides meet.
What happens to the melting and boiling point of a substance if it contains impurity?
If the impurity has a higher boiling point then the boiling point of the mixture will also be slightly higher, and vice versa.
Which polygon are on the US flag?
The 5-point stars have 10 sides, so they would be decagons. The blue field and also the stripes are rectangles.
