A) octagon
B) hexagon
C) heptagon
D) quadrilateral

Respuesta :

a polygon has 5 or more sides and is made of 4 triangles your asking for the name of it which is confusing because then you list a 8,6,7 and 4 sided shapes can you explain that? so it could be A,B, or C but only one you can make in to 4 triangle so i would go with B

Answer:

Option B. Hexagon

Step-by-step explanation:

The minimum number of triangles needed to construct a polygon is always represented by (n - 2) where n is the number of sides.

Now we put the values of n.

for n = 3 number of triangles = (3 - 2) = 1

for n = 4 number of triangles = (4 - 2) = 2

for n = 5 number of triangles = (5 - 2) = 3

for n = 6 number of triangles = (6 - 2) = 4

We have got the answer.

If minimum number of triangles are 4 then polygon formed is Hexagon where number of sides n = 6.

Option B. Hexagon is the answer.
