By definition, a polygon has three or more sides, so we'll start there.
3 -- trigon (more usually a triangle)
4 -- tetragon (more usually a quadrilateral)
5 -- pentagon
6 -- hexagon
7 -- heptagon
8 -- octagon
9 -- enneagon (also nonagon)
10 -- decagon
After about six sides, mathematicians usually refer to these polygons as n-gons, so a nine-sided figure could also be referred to as a 9-gon.
centi comes from the Latin word for 100. In the metric system it means 1/100, as the Latin prefixes mean reciprocal multipliers [1/10, 1/100, 1/1000, etc], and Greek prefixes are the 'normal' multipliers [10, 100, 1000, etc.]
There are 10 millimetres in every 1 centimetre. The reason for this is that centi means 1/100 and milli means 1/1000 according to the SI prefixes. 0.001/0.01 gives 10.
10 Moles is equivalent to a value of 10^7 micromoles. 1 micromole is equivalent to 10^-6 moles. Learning metric prefixes will help in this situation.
1 face at a time
1000, of course, as 1000 ×0,01 = 10.Greek "δέκα" means "ten", and Greek prefixes indicate multiples of units; hence 1 dekameter = 10 m. Latin prefixes indicate fractions of units; hence 1 cm (from Latin "centum", meaning "one hundred") contains 0,01 m.Note that 1 decimeter (from Latin "decem", meaning "ten") contains 10 cm, as you can easily verify, after these preliminaries.
Prefixes based on powers of 10 can be used with any SI (metric) unit. Some of the common prefixes are: Deka (10) Hekto (100) deci (1/10) centi (1/100) kilo (1000 Mega (million) milli (1/1000) micro (1/1,000,000)
The SI prefixes are from Greek, including deka, hecta, kilo, and mega (10, 100, 1000, 1 million)
One Kilo Liter is 1000 times one liter. follwoing are some prefixes used in the metric system. 10^3 kilo 10^0 no prefixes, only unit 10^-1 deci 10^-2 centi 10^-3 milli
The prefixes kilo represents 1000, deci represents 1/10, centi represents 1/100, milli represents 1/1000, micro represents 1/1,000,000, and nano represents 1/1,000,000,000. These prefixes are used to scale units of measurement in the metric system.
These prefixes are:meth, eth, prop, but, pent, hex, hept, oct, non, dec.
centi comes from the Latin word for 100. In the metric system it means 1/100, as the Latin prefixes mean reciprocal multipliers [1/10, 1/100, 1/1000, etc], and Greek prefixes are the 'normal' multipliers [10, 100, 1000, etc.]
They are different prefixes for amounts less than unity:kilo = 1/1000micro = 1/1,000,000nano = 1/1,000,000,000pico = 1/1,000,000,000,000
Yes they are polygons as they have more than 1 side.
point
There are two, somewhat rare, related prefixes. deci - 1/10 deca - 10 So, a deciliter would be 1/10 liters, or 0.1 liters.
Deci - 10-1 Centi - 10-2 (1 centimeter = 0.01 meter) Milli - 10-3 (1 milliliter = 0.001 liter) Micro - 10-6 Nano - 10-9 Pico - 10-12
There are 10 millimetres in every 1 centimetre. The reason for this is that centi means 1/100 and milli means 1/1000 according to the SI prefixes. 0.001/0.01 gives 10.
