There are a few simple shapes with equal sides. The basic shapes are a square, octagon, and an equilateral triangle,
All regular polygons (in order of sides starting with 3 sides): triangle, square, pentagon, hexagon, octagon, nonagon, decagon, hendecagon, dodecagon, tridecagon, tetradecagon, pentradecogon, hexadecagon, octadecagon, enneadecagon, icosagon (twenty sides).2d shapes are shapes that can be drawn on a paper, like lines, triangles, squares, rectangles, circles, etc. Some of these shapes are called polygons, and there are countless numbers of them with their names based on the Greek word for the number of sides on each shape. All sides are exactly the same as each other on regular polygons; one or more sides are different from the other sides on irregular polygons. A few of the polygon names, with the name following the number of sides on the 2d shape are:3 triangle4 quadrilateral (a regular quadrilateral is a square)5 pentagon6 hexagon10 decagon12 dodecagon20 Icosagon90 enneacontagonAfter about 10 sides mathematicians usually refer to polygons as n-gons; a 12 sided polygon (dodecagon) could also be called a 12-gon.In addition to polygons, there are circles, ovals, parabolas, and many other shapes that do not have straight sides.
There are a wide range of shapes, in 2 and 3 dimensions. 2 dimensional shapes with sides that are straight lines are called polygons. In most cases the first part of their name is the Greek word for the number of sides followed by the suffix -gon. Triangles and quadrilaterals have additional special names depending on their characteristics - for example, right angled isosceles triangle or parallelogram. Polygons with more 5 or more sides are generally classified into regular (all sides equal AND all angles equal) or irregular (some sides unequal or some angles unequal or both). Then there are shapes not bounded by straight lines such as a circle, ellipse, oval, and many other less well known shapes and finally the totally random, wriggly shape! In 3 dimensions, the nomenclature gets more complicated. Shapes bounded by plane faces are called polyhedra and they are named after the Greek name for the number of faces followed by the suffix -hedron. As in the case of polygons with a small number of sides, there are special names for some of the polyhedra with fewer sides. Pyramids and prisms are two classes of polyhedra. They can be triangle based, quadrilateral based, pentagon based and so on. There are also 3-d versions of other shapes: the sphere, cone, ellipsoid, cylinder, torus (doughnut shape) are some examples. And finally, there is the 3-d counterpart of the wriggly shape which goes under the technical name of the blob!
Of some shape, Yes. Of other shapes, No.
Some of the basic 3D shapes are:spherecubecuboidcylinderrectangular prismtriangular prismhexagonal prismconesquare-based pyramidtriangular-based pyramidhexagonal pyramidThere are an unlimited number of 3d shapes. These are called polyhedrons, and their names are from the Greek word for the quantity (number) of faces (sides) on each shape. All faces are exactly the same as each other on regular polyhedrons; one or more faces are different from the other faces on irregular polyhedrons. A few of the countless number of polyhedron names, with the name following the number of faces on the 3d shape are:4 tetrahedron (a regular tetrahedron is a pyramid with 3 sloping sides and a base)5 pentahedron (a regular pentahedron is a pyramid with 4 sloping sides and a base)6 hexahedron (a regular hexahedron is a cube, having 4 sides, a top, and a base)10 decahedron12 dodecahedron24 icositetrahedron90 enneacontahedron
A square -- has 4 sides a triangle -- has 3 sides A pentagon -- has 5 sides A circle -- has one side
well... theres a decagon(10 sides)...
A shape is an object with a specific number of sides. Some examples of shapes include circles, squares, triangles, pentagons, and hexagons.
Organic shapes don't have names. They are random shapes that you make up.

Pentagons have 5 sides and they can be regular or irregular

A point has no corners and no sides. There are several geometic shapes with no corners and only one side. Some of the shapes are circle, oval, and sphere.
squares and rectangles. and trapazoids
Of some shape, Yes. Of other shapes, No.
