Polygons Quiz
Polygons Quiz often makes us recall shapes we first drew in school with a ruler and pencil. An interesting piece of trivia is that the word polygon comes from Greek, meaning “many angles.” Ancient Greek mathematicians studied regular polygons not only for geometry but also for building patterns in temples and mosaics. They noticed that arranging simple figures like triangles and hexagons could create beautiful and practical designs that lasted for centuries. When you think about the sum of interior angles of a triangle or wonder what is a polygon with the least number of sides called, you are connecting to the same curiosity they had thousands of years ago. That is the spirit behind this quiz.
