A regular pentagon
The shape that has 5 sides is called a pentagon, from pent meaning 5 and gon meaning side. If all these sides are the same length, and all angles in the pentagon are equal, it is a regular pentagon. Otherwise, it is an irregular pentagon.
Pentagon.
It depends! If all its sides and angles are the same then it is a regular pentagon, however, if it's a five sided shape (5 straight sides that join to make a single shape), but it's sides or angles are not equal then it is an irregular pentagon.
A regular pentagon has all its sides of equal length and all its angles equal. An irregular pentagon does not. Several other differences follow from this distinction.
A pentagon has five equal sides an octagon has eight equal sides. Look at a stop sign, that is an octagon, a hexagon has has six equal sides. Try google image search for examples. Draw a perfect five pointed star, with equal distant sides and angles, then connect the points of the star with lines, if it is a perfect drawing your star should now be surrounded by a five equal sided shape called a pentagon.
Yes, a regular pentagon has 5 equal sides and 5 equal angles.
A Regular Pentagon
A regular pentagon has have equal sides. However, in the same way that a square has four equal sides but you can have a four sided figure with equal sides which is not a square, you can have pentagons that are not regular but do have equal sides. Unlike the quadrilateral, which is called a rhombus, there is no special name for a pentagon that has equal sides but not equal angles.
An irregular pentagon, which is still a pentagon, just not equal angles or sides. All 5 sided polygons are called pentagons.
A regular pentagon. A regular pentagon has five sides of equal length and its five angles are also equal. The term regular implies the notion of equal sides and equal angles.
a pentagon has 5 sides, a regular pentagon has 5 EQUAL sides A Regular Pentagon is a shape that has equal angles and side lengths. It is type of Pentagon. Pentagons do not have to have equal sides and lengths.
It has 5 sides. The sides are not equal. It does not have right angles.
A polygon with five sides and five angles is called a pentagon.
Pentagons don't have to have equal sides. The definition of a pentagon is simply a polygon with 5 sides and 5 interior angles. This means that as long as some shape has 5 sides and 5 interior angles (not necessarily all equal), then it is a pentagon.
A pentagon with 3 right angles is considered to be an irregular pentagon because not all angles and all sides are equal.
If those are the only sides and angles it has, then it's a regular pentagon.
The shape that has 5 sides is called a pentagon, from pent meaning 5 and gon meaning side. If all these sides are the same length, and all angles in the pentagon are equal, it is a regular pentagon. Otherwise, it is an irregular pentagon.
