What are octagons used for?
Stop signs
Why are stop signs octagons?
Stop signs are octagons so they will be very easy to recognize, even when partially obscured by vegetation, snow, etc. The stop sigh is the ONLY traffic sign that uses this shape.
What is a two dimensional shape with 8 angles?
A two-dimensional shape with eight angles is called an octagon. It has eight sides and eight vertices, and the sum of its interior angles is 1,080 degrees. Regular octagons have equal side lengths and angles, while irregular octagons can vary in shape. Common examples of octagons include stop signs and some tiles.
Are all octagons polygons?
no
Is a octagon regular or irregular?
Octagons can be irregular or regular. It depends on the measure of the angles and the length of a side. An octagon is a shape with 8 sides, not necessarily the regular octagon that stop signs are shaped like.

How does a stop sign have to-do with the number 8?
Stop signs are octagons--so 8 sides.
Is the shape of a stop sign a hexagon?
It depends on where you are. For example: Canada has 8 sided stop signs (octagons). If you really want to know go outside and look.
Do octagons have only obtuse angles?
No, not if it is a randomly-drawn 8-vertex shape. Octagons only have all- obtuse angles if it is a regular octagon, like the shape of a stop sign.
What is a two dimensional shape with 8 angles?

Regular octagons have equal side lengths and angles, while irregular octagons can vary in shape. Common examples of octagons include stop signs and some tiles.
Do all octagons have four sides and four angles?
All octagons have 8 sides and 8 angles
What is a shape that can be a 8 sided polygon?
All eight sided polygons are known as "octagons". Octagons that have all side lengths the same are known as "regular octagons".
Are all octagons polygons?
no
Why do we humans have stop signs?
if we had no stop signs then we would probably have car accidents all the time! stop signs are really important.
