The number of sides possible in a polygon is a minimum of 3, with an unlimited maximum. For a regular polygon, as the number of sides approaches infinity, it approaches the shape of a circle.

A polygon with four unequal sides is a quadrilateral. A polygon with five sides is a pentagon. The polygon with the least number of sides is the triangle.
The answer is 3.
infinite
In Euclidean 3-space: a triangle (3 sides)
The polygon may have 2n sides, where n is any whole number greater than 1
For any N-sided polygon: Sum of the interior angles can be found by (N-2)*180°. Note that a 3 sided polygon (triangle) is the least number of sides possible. So for 18 sides: (18-2)*180° = 2880°
That is correct, a polygon must have at least 3 sides. So the simplest polygon is the triangle. There is no upper limit to the number of sides that a polygon can have, although when the number of sides becomes very large, a regular polygon increasingly resembles a circle.
Yes. A polygon is by definition a shape enclosed by multiple sides - the smallest number of sides that enclose an area is three.
As many as you like but there must be at least three.
There is no mathematical limit to the number of sides that a polygon can have. As the number of sides increases the polygon will become more and more like a closed curve - a regular polygon will become like a circle. The size of the polygon and accuracy of measurement will determine when it is no longer possible to distinguish between the polygon and the curve. Nevertheless, the two shapes will be mathematically different objects.
