It means two dimensional such as the shape of a polygon or a rectangle that has dimensions of length and width.
perimeter is the measure around the figure; area is the measure within the figure formula: perimeter: length+length+width+width=perimeter (for square or rectangle) area: length times width= area ( for square or rectangle)
Only if they both have the same ratio of length to width. Since every square has the same ratio of length to width ( it's 1 ), all squares are similar. Gee, when you think about it, every regular polygon is similar to every other regular polygon with the same number of sides. I never realized that.
A 3D shape stands for Three-Dimensional. The three dimensions are Height, Width and Depth. A line just has height, so it is 1D. A polygon has both Height and width so it's 2D. A three dimensional object has all three; Height, Width and Depth.________^Height/Length = 1D-------------------| || | Depth |/ |----------------- |
Area is length x width. Meanwhile Perimeter is the addition of all the lengths and widths of the entire geometric polygon.

The area of a polygon is calculated using different formula depending on the number of sides of the polygon. The formula for a quadrilateral is length times width, the formula for a circle is pi time the square of the radius, and the formula for a triangle is base times height, divided by two.
The volume of a pyramid is: Volume= 1/3 area of base (length * width) * height OR V= 1/3LWH * * * * * A pyramid can have a base that is any convex polygon - not just a rectangle. So the "length * width" part of the formula is not generally valid.
there cannot be a one sided polygon as a polygon is defined as a 2-dimentional shape, which has area, and is enclosed by straight sides. Thus a polygon must have at least 3 sides so that it can enclose an area. Perhaps the question is supposed to be more along the lines of what 2-dimentional shape has only one side? this would be a circle
It is a 4 sided quadrilateral polygon It has opposite parallel sides Its length is greater than its width Its area is length times width Its perimeter is the sum of its 4 sides It has 4 interior right angles that add up to 360 degrees It has 2 diagonals It will tessellate
it seems to me that the only polygon of your description is a square
A type of polygon is a rhombusial polygon, trysectalnict polygon, and a equilateral polygon.
A triangle (not traingle) is a polygon. It can be a regular polygon but need not be.
