Answer:

Statement is conditional.

Explanation:

Given the statement

"If a polygon has six sides, then it is a hexagon"

Option A: Conjunction

A conjunction statement is a compound statement which is formed by joining two statements with connector AND.

Hence, not a conjunction statement

Option B: Disjunction

A disjunction statement is a compound statement which is formed by joining two statements with connector OR.

Hence, not a disjunction statement

Option C: Negation

Opposite of a given statement is negation of statement

Option D: Conditional

Conditional statement is an if-then statement

As given statement is if-then statement therefore called conditional statement.

Option D is correct
