A henagon is a geometric shape that consists of a polygon with one side. In simpler terms, it is a one-sided polygon. It is a rare and theoretical concept, as most polygons have more than one side. The term "henagon" is not commonly used in mathematics, as it is more typical to refer to shapes with more sides.

Well, honey, a henagon is just a fancy word for a polygon with one side. It's like a loner in the polygon world, standing there all by itself with no sides to chat with. So, if you ever come across a henagon, just give it a little nod and move on because it's not really bringing much to the polygon party.

Ingeometry a henagon (or monogon) is a polygon with one edge and one vertex. It has Schläfli symbol {1}. Since a henagon has only one side and only one interior angle, every henagon is regular by definition. In Euclidean geometry, a henagon is usually considered to be an impossible object, because its single edge would extend to infinity. However, in spherical geometry a finite henagon can be drawn by placing a single vertex anywhere on a great circle. Two henagons can be used to construct a dihedron on a sphere, with Schläfli symbol, {1,2}.

What do you call a 101 sided shape?

A 101-sided shape is called a "hectacontakaihenagon." The naming convention for polygons involves using Greek numerical prefixes to indicate the number of sides, followed by the suffix "-gon" to denote a polygon. In this case, "hectaconta-" represents 100, and "henagon" refers to a polygon with one side.
