What are 2D shapes ? 2D shapes, or two-dimensional shapes, are flat shapes that have only two dimensions, length and width. They do not have depth or height. These shapes can be drawn on a flat surface, like a piece of paper, and they include various types of polygons and circles. Here’s a detailed explanation […]

An octagon is a geometric shape that falls within the category of polygons, specifically an eight-sided polygon. The term “octagon” is derived from the Greek words “okto,” meaning eight, and “gonia,” meaning angles. Below is a detailed exploration of octagons: […]

Read More →Lines of Symmetry In Regular Polygons What is line of symmetry? An object is considered to be symmetrical, if when folded or sliced in half, both halves are mirror images of one another. An object is said to have a line of symmetry when one half of it is the mirror image of the other. […]

Diagonals of Polygon’s A polygon’s diagonal’s are line segments, that joining from one corner to another corner. Formula for number of diagonals = n(n-3)/2 where n is number of sides or […]
