Question

A Web site defines a regular polygon as “a polygon with all angles the same measure.” Is this definition valid?

A. No, because not all regular polygons fit this definition.

B. No, because some polygons that are irregular fit this definition.

C. Yes, because a square is a regular polygon.

D. Yes, because all regular polygons fir this definition.

Answer 1

Option D is correct .

Explanation:

A polygon is a two-dimensional figure made up of straight lines.

A polygon is said to be regular if all its angles are equal.

For example:

equilateral triangle, square, pentagon, hexagon, heptagon, octagon, decagon are all regular polygons as they all have equal angles .

A Web site defines a regular polygon as “a polygon with all angles the same measure.” We need to find if this definition valid?

Given Options:

A. No, because not all regular polygons fit this definition.

B. No, because some polygons that are irregular fit this definition.

C. Yes, because a square is a regular polygon.

D. Yes, because all regular polygons fit this definition.

Option D is correct .

Answer 2

Yes, because all regular polygons fit this definition.

Choice D is correct

Explanation:

A polygon is said to be regular if it is equiangular that is all its angles are equal and equilateral which implies that all its sides have equal length. Examples of regular polygons include;

Regular pentagon

Regular octagon
