classification of polygon​

Polygons can be classified based on various criteria, including the number of sides, the length of sides, and the measure of angles. Here are the main classifications:1. Based on the Number of Sides:•Triangle: 3 sides•Quadrilateral: 4 sides•Pentagon: 5 sides•Hexagon: 6 sides•Heptagon: 7 sides•Octagon: 8 sides•Nonagon: 9 sides•Decagon: 10 sides2. Based on Side Lengths:Regular Polygon: All sides and angles are equal (e.g., equilateral triangle, square).Irregular Polygon: Sides and angles are not all equal.3. Based on Angle Measures:Convex Polygon: All interior angles are less than 180 degrees.Concave Polygon: At least one interior angle is greater than 180 degrees.SummaryPolygons can be classified by the number of sides (triangle, quadrilateral, etc.), by the equality of their sides and angles (regular vs. irregular), and by the measures of their angles (convex vs. concave).
