'Poly' simply means 'many' or 'multiple', so a polygon is just a shape with any number of sides. Unlike hexagons ('hex'=6) or pentagons ('penta'=5), polygon is just a blanket word for any multi-sided shape. Squares and triangles and rhombuses and semicircles are all polygons.

Nearly correct.
The sides of a polygon must be straight lines so a semicircle is NOT a polygon.
Technically, a polygon can have an unlimited number of sides.
There is no limit to the number of sides that a polygon can have. Mathematically, a circle is equivalent to a polygon with an infinite number of sides.
A polygon with 3960 sides is called a 3960-gon. The number of sides in a polygon can be simply referred to by its name, so a polygon with 3960 sides has exactly 3960 sides.
It depends on the type of polygon; for example: if the polygon is a parallelogram; the number of sides is 4
Twelve. The number of sides and vertices in a polygon are always the same.
Technically, a polygon can have an unlimited number of sides.
A polygon is a shape with multiple sides. There are an infinite number of polygons, as the polygon is classified by the number of sides.
A polygon with the least number of sides is a triangle (3 sides)
by the number of sides, 'n' of that particular polygon. by the exterior angle. Therefore, the number of sides of the polygon is 24 sides.
a house. It has 5 sides like a polygon
A polygon may have any number of sides. A shape with four sides is a type of polygon called a quadrilateral.
yes a polygon does have the most number and sides because they have the most number of shapes with the most number of sides
There is no limit to the number of sides that a polygon can have. Mathematically, a circle is equivalent to a polygon with an infinite number of sides.
A polygon has the same number of sides and angles.
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.
A polygon with 3960 sides is called a 3960-gon. The number of sides in a polygon can be simply referred to by its name, so a polygon with 3960 sides has exactly 3960 sides.
A 7 sided polygon has 14 diagonals
