The sum of the numbers of vertices of a triangle and the number of the vertices of a Pentagon is the same as the number of vertices of an

Answer 1

To find the number of vertices of an unspecified shape, we can start by identifying the number of vertices in a triangle and a pentagon.

• A triangle has 3 vertices.
• A pentagon has 5 vertices.

Now, we sum the vertices of the triangle and the pentagon:

\[ 3 \text{ (vertices in triangle)} + 5 \text{ (vertices in pentagon)} = 8 \]

This means the total number of vertices is 8.

Now, let’s identify a shape that has 8 vertices. A polygon with 8 vertices is called an octagon.

Thus, the answer is that the sum of the numbers of vertices of a triangle and a pentagon is the same as the number of vertices of an octagon.
