A polygon that can be divided into 4 triangles is a quadrilateral. A quadrilateral is a polygon with four sides and four vertices. By drawing a diagonal from one vertex to the opposite vertex, a quadrilateral can be divided into two triangles. By drawing another diagonal from the other two vertices, the quadrilateral can be further divided into a total of four triangles.

BeauOh, what a lovely question! Any polygon with 4 or more sides can be divided into 4 triangles. You simply need to draw two diagonals from any vertex of the polygon to divide it into four separate triangles. Isn't it wonderful how shapes can be transformed into something new with just a few lines?
A square!!!!
Draw two diagonals. The interior of the square is now four Isosceles triangles.

How many triangles on hectagon?
A hexagon can be divided into triangles by drawing diagonals from one vertex to all non-adjacent vertices. This results in a total of ( n - 2 ) triangles, where ( n ) is the number of sides in the polygon. For a hexagon, which has 6 sides, you can create ( 6 - 2 = 4 ) triangles. Thus, a hexagon can be divided into 4 triangles.
How many triangles are in a 4-sided polygon?
You could draw four different triangles in a 4-sided polygon, but two are enough to define the polygon.
What is the connectionbetween the number of sides of the polygon and the number of triangles into which it may be divided by drawing diagonals from one vertex?
Number of sides minus 2 equals the number of triangles within the polygon.
The hexagon can be divided into how many triangles?
6-2 = 4 triangles
