There cannot be a similar polygon by itself. One polygon is similar to another if all of their corresponding angles are equal. This requires that the lengths of corresponding sides are in the same ratio: that is, if one polygon is a dilation of the other.

Polygons abcd and afge are similar ad equals 12 and ad equals 12 if af equals 6 if the perimeter of afge is 28 what is the perimeter of abcd?

56 (: When we say polygon abcd is similar to polygon afge, they already told you which are the lines that are similar. ab:af=bc:fg=cd:ge etc. Lines ad and af are not similar in length and therefore cannot be used to find perimeter of polygon abcd even though the perimeter of polygon afge is given.

What do you call a infinty sided polygon?

There is no such thing. I would say that a polygon, by definition, has a finite number of sides. That being said, as the number of sides in a REGULAR polygon increases, it becomes more and more similar to a circle.
