What is a figure having a polygon and base and triangler sides which meet in a point at the top?
This sounds like you are talking about a pyramid. Pyramids in Geometry are not restricted to the square pyramids you may be used to seeing in pictures of from Egypt. Pyramids are named after the type of polygon that make up their base. In Egypt, since the bases of those pyramids are squares, they are known as square pyramids. If you had a pyramid with a pentagon for a base, then it would be a pentagonal pyramid. Pyramids always have triangles for sides that meet at a common point at the top which is known as the apex.
Are some squares not rectangles?
squares are a type of rectangle
What are equivalent triangles?
They are triangles with 3 equal sides and 3 equal interior angles or triangles that are congruent in shape
What type of polygon must have a diagonal such that part of the diagonal falls outside of the polygon?
Concave quadrilateral.
What does two triangles that share one vertex look like?
A bow-tie type connection of 2 triangles.
Can polygon be a trianle?
Triangles are one type of polygon
What is one type of tessellation?
Triangles, squares, hexagons, and octagons all tessellate
What Type of polygon is a Pentominoe?
It is a polygon consisting of 5 unit squares that are attached to one another along a length.
What type of polygon could form the surfaces of a right triangular prism?
rectangles and triangles
What are the three type of polygons that can be a platonic solid?
Equilateral triangles, squares, regular pentagons.
What is a polygon in which all sides o and rsquoclock congruent and all angles are congruent congruent?
A polygon in which all sides and all angles are congruent is called a regular polygon. Examples include equilateral triangles, squares, and regular pentagons. In a regular polygon, each exterior angle is equal, and the interior angles are also equal, contributing to its symmetrical properties. The number of sides determines the specific type of regular polygon.
How are polygons used in daily life?
Nearly every object is some type of rectangle or triangle. Typically squares,triangles,and hexagons are the most common of polygons. I'm not sure if circles count as a polygon but they are probably as popular as squares. Plenty of rectangles which are not squares such as bricks or wooden boards are also used. Another example might be cardboard boxes.
Is a triangle always half a square?
No, a triangle is not always half a square. While a right triangle can be considered half of a rectangle (which is a type of square), this is not true for all triangles. Triangles can have various shapes and sizes, independent of squares. Therefore, the relationship between triangles and squares is not universally applicable.
What type of polygon is needed to make a tessellation?
All triangles will tessellate. All quadrilaterals will tessellate There are 15 classes of convex pentagons (the latest discovered in 2015) which will tessellate. Regular hexagons will tessellate. In addition, there are 3 classes of irregular convex hexagons which will tessellate. No convex polygon with 7 or more sides will tessellate.
Why is it important to use angles triangles and squares when building bridges?
Triangles are the strongest type of shape. It is very sturdy, but takes up little space. It is the best for building bridges.
Tessellations that use more than one type of regular polygon are called regular tessellations.?
Actually, tessellations that use more than one type of regular polygon are called semi-regular or Archimedean tessellations, not regular tessellations. Regular tessellations consist of only one type of regular polygon repeating in a pattern. Examples of regular tessellations include those formed by equilateral triangles, squares, or hexagons. Semi-regular tessellations combine two or more different types of regular polygons while still covering a plane without gaps or overlaps.
How many sides does an isosogon have?
An isosogon is a type of polygon that has an equal number of sides and angles. Specifically, it is a polygon that can be characterized by having equal-length sides, making it a specific type of isosceles polygon. The most common examples of isosogons are triangles and quadrilaterals, but the term can apply to any polygon with equal sides. Therefore, the number of sides an isosogon can have varies, depending on the specific shape in question.
