    The number of sides a polygon equal to the number of vertices for that polygon.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    To prove the number of sides equal to the number of vertices

    Triangle

    Number of sides = 3

    Number of angles = 3

    Rectangle

    Number of sides = 4

    Number of angles = 4

    Pentagon

    Number of sides = 5

    Number of angles = 5

    .

    .

    .

    Decagon

    Number of sides = 10

    Number of angles = 10

    Therefore for any polygon the number of sides is equal to number of vertices.

    Equal to.

    For every vertex, two sides are made. Each side is part of two vertices. Subtracting the number of duplicate sides yields the number of vertices. Therefore, number of sides=number of vertices.
