I believe is a heptagon after a hexagon and after a heptagon is a octagon.
A pentagon has 5 sides. A hexagon has 6 sides. The penta- prefix comes from the Greek for 5; The hexa- prefix comes from the Greek for 6. The -gon suffix comes from the Greek for "corner" or "angle". Thus a pentagon is a five cornered (or five angled) shape; and a hexagon is a six cornered (or six angled) shape.
Minimally, two (2) trapezoids are necessary to create a hexagon. (This solution comes from drawing a line straight across the center of the hexagon.) Most numbers (if not all) greater than two are also feasible, but with more finagling.

An irregular hexagon.

I suppose its Hexagon.
A hexagon has 6 sides and 6 angles. The prefix comes from the Greek 'hex' for six.
Pentagon
Yes, it comes from the word εξάγωνο (eksagono).
decagon.

Every hexagon has six sides. That's what the "hex" in hexagon means. Every polygon comes in two flavors and the hexagon can be either one of them ... 'regular' or 'irregular'. If the hexagon is a regular one, then all six of its sides are congruent. If the hexagon is an irregular one, then 2, 3, 4, 5, or none of its sides may be congruent.
The answer is a Nonagon. Hope this helps!!
The language of origin of "hexagon" is Greek. It comes from the combination of the Greek words "hex" meaning "six" and "gonia" meaning "angle," describing a shape with six angles or sides.
Most polygons have numerical prefices which are derived from Greek. The exception are quadrilateral and nonagon which use Latin prefices. The Greek prefix for six is hexa.
