3. If you think about it, you cannot have less than three sides on any shape, as it is impossibe to join two sides together without putting them directly on top of each other.

What is the number of sides of a regular polygon if its sum of interior polygon is 5760?

It will have 34 sides


How many sides does a regular polygon have?

The number of sides a polygon has depends on the polygon. A triangle has three sides (tri=3). A rectangle (quadrilateral) has four sides (quad=4). A regular polygon can have any greater number of sides, without limit.


What is the rule for the number lines of symmetry of any regular polygon?

Number of lines of symmetry = Number of sides of the regular polygon


How many sides does a polygon have with interior angles of 45 degrees?

22/3 sides.-- The smallest possible number of sides for a polygon is 3, in a triangle.If the triangle is regular, then each interior angle is 60 degrees.-- The next polygon is the quadrilateral, with 4 sides. If the quadrilateralis regular, then each interior angle is 90 degrees.-- We can see that as the number of sides increases, the interior angles get bigger.-- So the triangle is the polygon with the smallest interior angles.And those are 60 degrees, so a polygon with all45-degree interior anglesisn't possible. Some of them could be, but never all.


If the measure of one interior angle of a regular polygon is 108 how many sides does the regular polygon have?

To find the number of sides of a regular polygon, you can use the formula: Number of sides = 360 degrees ÷ Measure of each interior angle. In this case, if one interior angle is 108 degrees, the regular polygon has 360 ÷ 108 = 3.33 sides. Since a polygon cannot have a fractional number of sides, we round down to the nearest whole number. Therefore, the regular polygon has 3 sides, which makes it an equilateral triangle.
