how to find diagonals of quadrilateral , pentagon , hexagon and octagon

Dear Student,

the diagonal of any polygon is the line joining any two points such that the points are not adjacent.so to find the number of diagonals we need to draw these shapes and draw diagonalsYou can also use the formulanumber of diagonals=n×n-32 where n is number of sidesquadrilateral- 4 sides, 2 diagonalspentagon- 5 sides, 5 diagonalshexagon - 6 sides, 9 diagonalsoctagon- 8 sides, 20 diagonals
