Yes. In this case N refers to any integer larger than 2. For every value of n there is a polygon that corresponds. As n becomes very large the polygon is almost indistinguishable from a circle, but it is only approaching a circle.
Examples
If n = 3. Triangle
If n = 8. Octogon
If n = 100. Hectogon
For large values of n the polygons don't have names.

Names for an n sided shape is?
A shape in 2D with n sides is called an n-gon. In higher dimensions, a shape with n sides is called an n-sided polyhedron.
What shape has the most obtuse angle?
A regular polygon of n sides (where n > 4) has n obtuse angles. Since there is no limit to the number of sides that a polygon can have, there can be no limit to the number of obtuse angles in a shape.
What is a solid shape with at least three sides shaped like a triangle?
A n-gonal pyramid will have n triangles and one polygon with n sides (n>=3). The simplest of these is the tetrahedron (a triangular pyramid).
What is the most edges you can get on a shape and it is 2D?
There is no maximum. For any integer n, there is a regular polygon (a 2-d shape) with n sides. And there are non-regular polygons as well.
How do you tell how many degrees in a shape?
180 * (n - 2) degrees; Where n is the number of sides. (n must be greater than or equal to 3 because a polygon must have at least 3 sides)
Names for an n sided shape is?
A shape in 2D with n sides is called an n-gon. In higher dimensions, a shape with n sides is called an n-sided polyhedron.
How many diagonals are in a shape?
n(n - 3)/2. where n is the number of sides in the shape
What shape has 11 sides?
a nondecagon
How many diagonals does a shape with 5 sides have?
5(5-3)/2. That it is the formula so that shape would have 5 diagonals. n(n-3)/2 where n is the number of sides
What shape has the most obtuse angle?
A regular polygon of n sides (where n > 4) has n obtuse angles. Since there is no limit to the number of sides that a polygon can have, there can be no limit to the number of obtuse angles in a shape.
What shape starts with the letter N?
Nonagon is a shape with 9 straight sides. It begins with the letter n.The answer is... an i without a dot.· nonagon
How do you find the n number of a shape?
count the sides or edges.
What is the sum of each interior angles?
It depends how many sides the shape has. If n is the number of sides of the shape, then the interior angles sum to (n - 2) x 180o. The exterior angles of any shape sum to 360o.
How many diagonals are there in a 25 sided shape?
There are 275 diagonals in a shape with 25 sides. The formula is n*(n-3)/2
What is a solid shape with at least three sides shaped like a triangle?
A n-gonal pyramid will have n triangles and one polygon with n sides (n>=3). The simplest of these is the tetrahedron (a triangular pyramid).
What is the most edges you can get on a shape and it is 2D?
There is no maximum. For any integer n, there is a regular polygon (a 2-d shape) with n sides. And there are non-regular polygons as well.
How much degrees is a pentagon?
The sum of internal angles of a shape is given by the equation 180(n-2) where n is the number of sides. For a pentagon, which has 5 sides, this would be 180x3 = 540. The sum of external angles of a shape is given by (180-(x/n))n where n is the number of sides and x is the sum of internal angles. For a pentagon, this would be 5x(180-540/5) = 360
