Question

1. does a rectangle have more sides or angles?
2. how many sides does a pentagon have?

Explanation:

Question 3

Step1: Recall rectangle properties

A rectangle is a quadrilateral. By definition, a quadrilateral has 4 sides. Also, in a rectangle, each angle is a right angle, and the number of angles is equal to the number of sides for a polygon (since it's a closed figure with straight sides, the number of angles is equal to the number of sides). So, a rectangle has 4 sides and 4 angles.

Step2: Compare number of sides and angles

Since the number of sides (4) is equal to the number of angles (4), a rectangle has the same number of sides and angles.

Step1: Recall polygon naming

The prefix "penta-" in "pentagon" means five. In polygon terminology, the number of sides is indicated by the prefix. So, a pentagon is a polygon with 5 sides.

Answer:

A rectangle has the same number of sides and angles (both 4).
