The desk itself is not a polygon since it is a three-dimensional object, but a polygon is a two-dimensional object. Perhaps you are asking whether the top of the desk is shaped like a regular polygon. Most school desks have rounded corners (to reduce injuries) and thus would not be regular polygons. Some also have ridges and other irregularities for pencils and the like. And most are probably a little wider than they are long. But I'm sure there are some school desks somewhere whose tops are shaped like regular polygons. You'll have to examine the desks that your school uses and compare them to the definition of a regular polygon in your math book.

What is the difference between a regular polygon and non-regular polygon?
All the sides of a regular polygon have the same length. If two or more sides of a polygon have different lengths, then the polygon is not regular.
Who many angles does a Irregular polygon have?
an irregular polygon is a polygon that is the opposite of a regular polygon in a regular polygon the sides are the same and the angles are the same and irregular is the opposite.
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 does it mean when you say a polygon is regular?
A polygon is regular when all its sides are the same length and its internal angles are the same. It is said to be equilateral and equiangular, and that is what a polygon is when it is regular.
Is a cylinder shape a regular or not regular polygon?
Cylinder is not a polygon as it is a 3 dimensional object.
