It is called a quadrilateral. This is the general term for a four-sided polygon, but if at least two sides are equal or two angles are equal, it has a more specific name.

What is the difference between a regular polygon and polygon -?

A regular polygon has equal sides and same sizes of interior angles whereas an irregular polygon has sides of different lengths and different sizes of interior angles


What is the definition of similar shape?

similar shapes are shapes that have the same angles but are different sizes.


If two figures are similar then are they also congruent?

No. Two figures are similar if they have same shape, and all the angles are equal; but they can have the sides of different sizes. I mean, similar figures may have different sizes, but must have the same shape.


How many squares are there in a polygon?

The number of squares in a polygon can vary depending on the number of sides and angles it has. In general, a polygon with n sides can have n(n+1)(2n+1)/6 squares. This formula accounts for the different possible orientations and sizes of squares that can be formed within the polygon. It is important to note that not all polygons will have squares within them, as some shapes may not allow for the formation of square shapes.


Can a polygon be equilateral but not Equiangular?

A polygon cannot be equilateral but not equiangular because in the definiton of a regular polygon which is a polygon that is both equiangular and equilateral you see that you cannot have one without the other. As long as a polygon is equilateral it is also equilangular and vice versa. ARBETTES: You cannot have both in all polygons. In all triangles this is true. If a triangle is equilateral then it is equiangular. However, let's take a known quadrilateral: Rhombus. The definition of a Rhombus is that it has all equal sides. That's it. It's oppsite angles have to be congruent, but they do not all have to be 90 degrees.
