An equilateral polygon is a polygon whose sides are all of the same measure.
An equiangular polygon is a polygon whose angles are all of the same measure.
A triangle is the only polygon where these two are effectively one and the same..
But it does not apply to polygons of 4 or more sides.
A square and rhombus are equilateral but a rhombus is not equiangular.
A square and rectangle are equiangular but a rectangle is not equilateral.
This can be extended to all polygons with more than 4 sides but it is more difficult because they do not have distinctive names.

Why is an equilateral polygon not necessarily a regular polygon?
A regular polygon must be equiangular as well as equilateral. A rhombus is an example of a polygon that is equilateral but not equiangular.
What is convex equilateral equiangular polygon called?
A regular polygon.
A polygon with equal angles?
this means that it is equiangular. All polygons are equiangular and equilateral (Equilateral means that all of the sides are congruent)
What is an equilateral polygon that is not a regular polygon?
A rhombus has four sides of equal lengths. So it is an equilateral polygon. But it is not an equiangular. It's angles are not equal in measure.
Can a polygon be equilangular but not equilateral?
A polygon can be equilateral but not always equiangular. Some examples of this are rhomboids and other polygons like pentagons and hexagons.
