_______________ number of pairs of parallel lines are there in a regular pentagon?

  1. 0
  2. 1
  3. 2
  4. 5

hintHint:

General Synopsis of Polygon.

The correct answer is: 0


    *In mathematics, a polygon is a closed two-dimensional figure made up of line segments.
    * Poly means many gon means angle. Hence, polygon is a closed figure that is made of many angles.
    Given That:
                        number of pairs of parallel lines are there in a regular pentagon
    >>>Regular pentagon is a five sided closed figure where all it's sides are equal.
    >>>Then, the regular pentagon looks like:

    >>>From figure, we can say that there are no parallel sides exist.
    >>>Therefore, number of pairs of parallel sides in the regular pentagon is ZERO.

    Pentagon is a closed figure which has five sides, five corners. Given is a regular pentagon which means it has equal interior angles and equal side lengths.
    >>>Therefore, the regular pentagon has ZERO pairs of parallel sides.

    The maximum number of sides that a polygon can have is ________

    The definition of a polygon states that ‘A simple closed curve made up of only line segments is called a polygon.’ Here the basic condition for a polygon is that the figure should be a closed figure and there can be ‘n’ numbers for sides.
    >>>Hence, we can say that a polygon can have infinite number of sides.

    When a square is pushed from one corner keeping the base as it is, which polygon is formed?

    If we select the upper corner of a square and push it, the square will bend in the direction of the force. So, the vertical edges would tilt in the direction of the force, leading to the formation of a new polygon named rhombus.
    >>Hence, the Polygon obtained from a square modification is RHOMBUS.

    What is the general form of naming a polygon?

    One can find this with a small trick. The student should learn to break the word. For example, Hexagon: Hexa+Gon. Now, as we know that hexa is six. Similarly, if a polygon has ‘n’ sides, then the polygon would be named as n-gon.
