what are the names of geometric figure with 12sides and above?

Question

names like polygon etc

Answer 1

OK, first I am going to assume you mean the name of geometric figures using Euclidean Geometry. So here is a partial list of polygons with 12 or more sides.

dodecagon - 12
hendendecagon - 11
tridecagon - 13
tetradecagon - 14
pentadecagon - 15
hexadecagon -16
heptadecaagom - 17
octadecagon - 18
icosahedron - 20
tricontago - 30
tetracontagon - 40
pentacontagon - 50
hectagon - 100
chiliagon - 1,000
myriagon - 10,000
decemyriagon - 100,000
hecatommyriagon - 1,000,00

There are several more but this should give you a starting point.

Out of curiosity why did you place thing under chemistry? Having worked for Pfizer (#1 drug company in the world) I assume it has to do with the structure and development of pharmaceutical compounds.

Also I am very concerned about the education that Princton_girl and beaglemeister14 are receiving, Have they really been taught that the proper term for a polygon is determined by simply putting a number in front of "agon" as correct? Really... 12agon,15agon or 20agon? Even if you used twleveagon, fifteenagon or twentyagon; does that sound logical? If they are being taught that as mathematically correct why isn't a pentagon called a fiveagon, a triangle called a threeagon or an octagon called an eightagon?

The teachers instructing these young people (one in high school and I hope Princton_girl isn't attending Prinction University) are either idiots, geometrically challenged or just make this stuff up because they are too lazy to open a book and learn. And to the people who said that 12-agon was right or that the people who said placing a number in front of "agon" are correct...all of you need to read your text books and challenge what ever dumb *** teacher is screwing up your education. It's not your fault that your teachers are ill educated but it is your responsibility to get your teachers to "teach" you. You can startby telling your parents or the local school board of the piss poor math you are being taught.

Man, I really wish you luck.

Answer 2

The question here isn't so much geometrical as topological. If you ignore the thickness of the loop, it's a circle, but really it's a thin band of metal, a little bit like a tiny bicycle inner-tube. The term for this geometrical object is a torus. In this case, the torus has been deformed, but it's still a torus. A coffee cup is a deformed torus, too. There's surely a common, non-technical name for this particular kind of deformation (a certain style of cross, I would imagine). But, in geometrically technical terms, it's just a torus.

Answer 3

here are some from 12 up.

12 Dodecagon, 13 triskaidecagon, 14 tetradecagon, 15 pentadecagon, 16 hexadecagon, 17 heptakaidecagon, 18 octakaidecagon, 19 enneakaidecagon, 20 icosagon

Answer 4

Those two are right, but a twelve-sided polygon is also called a dodecagon.

Answer 5

anything above ten is the number then -gon
12 would be 12-gon

Answer 6

yeah, he's right, I learned about that last year. they just go like 12-agon, 15-agon, and so on.
