Yes and no. Being irregular means that all sides and angles are different, thus, giving the shape no symmetry. Regular is just the opposite, of course. Triangles can be both because there can be different kinds of triangles. For example, an equilateral triangle would be regular because all its sides and angles are equal. Now a scalene triangle is different, for none of its sides are equal. Though, there is another triangle, called the isosceles triangle, that only has two of its sides equal. Remember, an irregular shape must have all its sides and angles to be unmatched, so that means the isosceles is still regular.

Are the triangles in a geodesic dome regular polygons?

Only if it is a regular tetrahedron, regular octahedron, or regular icosahedron. All other geodesics have isosceles triangle faces, not equilateral triangles.


How many triangles can you fit in a regular polygon?

The number of triangles that can be formed within a regular polygon depends on the number of sides the polygon has. For an n-sided polygon, where n is greater than or equal to 3, you can form n-2 triangles within the polygon. This is because each triangle is formed by connecting one vertex to any other two non-adjacent vertices. So, for example, in a regular pentagon (5-sided polygon), you can form 5-2 = 3 triangles.
