This math topic practices skills in classifying polygons based on their sides, with a focus on real-world applications. The problems present various polygons—squares, hexagons, pentagons, and octagons—and require identifying objects that match the given polygon shapes. Each question lists multiple image options, from which the correct shape corresponding to a described polygon must be selected. This is part of a series on Geometry Basics, helping learners recognize polygonal shapes in everyday objects.
