Is a quadrilateral a polygon with four equal sides?
Not always because a quadrilateral is any type of polygon that has 4 sides which may not be all equal.
How many equal sides does a irregular hexagon?
A regular polygon must have all sides (and angle) equal.An irregular polygon does not have to have all sides equal, but some may be equal.An irregular hexagon may have 2, 3, 4 or 5 equal sides.
Is a triangle a regular polygon?
A triangle may or may not be a regular polygon. Let's look into things.First, a triangle is a polygon. All triangles are polygons. To be a regular polygon, the polygon must have equal sides. If the triangle has sides of equal length, then that triangle is an equilateral triangle and a regular polygon. If the triangle doesn't have sides of equal length, then it isn't a regular polygon. But in any case, the triangle is a polygon.
How does one find the perimeter of a polygon?
If there is regular polygon(having equal sides), then perimeter is L*N where L is length of side and N is no. of sides. If polygon is not regular then may Perimeter is equal to sum of all sides, if size of each side is known.
What is a polygon with no congruent sides?
It is a non-equilateral polygon. It will, therefore, be an irregular polygon. However, it may or may not be non-equiangular. For example, it is possible to construct polygons with 5 or more sides such that no two sides are the same but such that all the angles are equal.
Are all polygons regular?
Not all polygons are regular by definition. An irregular polygon may have non-congruent sides or non congruent angles or both. A regular polygon will always have both congruent sides and angles.
How many congruent sides does a polygon have?
It all depends on what kind of polygon it is. It may have no congruent sides or all congruent sides.
Can you tile a surface with a polygon with 10 sides?
No. If the decagon (a 10 sided polygon) is a regular decagon where all ten sides are of equal length and all angles are equal then the shape of such a polygon prevents complete tiling taking place. Gaps would remain. If the polygon is irregular in shape then there may be a certain design that would enable complete tiling to be done.
What is the classifying of polygon?
There are a number of different, and sometimes overlapping, classifications. Polygons may be convex or concave. In a convex polygon, any two points inside the polygon are joined by a straight line that is wholly inside the polygon. In a concave polygon there are at least two points such that the line joining them intersects its boundary. Polygons can by equilateral (all sides of equal length), or equiangular (all angles of equal measure) or regular (all sides equal AND all angles equal). Note that in general (unlike for triangles) equilateral and equiangular are not the same. Polygons can be classified according to the number of sides/angles.
Properties of a polygon?
A polygon is a closed figure on a plane. A regular polygon has all the sides of equal length and the included angles the same. Known by their number of their sides. square, triangle, pentagon. octagon, nonagon etc ... . One may also have a polygonal prism, a solid figure with 3, 4, 5 ... equal sides, and an extended height.
What is a nonregular polygon?
A polygon is an enclosed plane area whose boundaries comprise straight lines.A regular polygon is one in which all the sides are of the same length and all the angles are of the same measure.An irregular polygon is one which is not regular. It may have one or more sides that are not the same length as other sides, or one or more angles that are not the same measure as other angles (or both).
Is opposite angels of a polygon equal to each other?
They may, or may not, be equal. If you are talking about a regular polygon, all angles are equal in measure. If it is not a regular polygon, the angles are most likely different.
