Do unusual shapes and normal shapes have the same name if they have the same number of sides?

Yes. For a given number of sides, you can have "regular" polygons where all sides are of the same length, and "irregular" polygons with different lengths and angles.
A "concave" polygon is one having interior angles greater than 180°, so that line segments fall between two other points on the shape, such as a tetragon formed as a nested letter V.

Whene an artwork is balancd its parts have the same visual weight
Which shapes have a parallel sides?
All regular polygons with an even number of sides. Irregular polygons with an odd number of sides can have parallel sides. There are also non polygonal shapes that can have parallel sides.
Which shapes have opposite sides congruent and parallel?
There are many such shapes. Any polygon with an even number of sides can have opposite sides that meet the above requirements.
What are the names of 3D shapes by the number of sides that they have?
Polyhedra.
Shapes that have five sides?
A shape that has five sides is called a pentagon. A normal pentagon has all five sides that are the same length.
Will a shape always have the same number of vertice as sides?
The answer depends on the dimensions of the shape. Plane shapes - flat shapes in 2-dimensional space - will have the same number of vertices as sides. However, that is not the case with solid shapes.
Does a polygon have more sides or more angles and why?
yes a polygon does have the most number and sides because they have the most number of shapes with the most number of sides
What shapes has equal sides?
Any regular shapes have equal sides, including squares and equilateral triangles. Irregular shapes can also have equal sides, but not equal angles.
What are the names of shapes with different number of sides?
They are called polygons.
What shapes have the exact number of sides as a hexagon?
Other hexagons.
How many shapes have all equal sides lengths?
An infinite number. A polygon with any number of sides can be equilateral (ie have sides of equal length).
What determines whether two shapes are similar?
the same number of sides and internal angles but not the length of the sides.
What shape is it if all sides and angles are equal?
Many shapes circle, equalateral triangle, square, and all normal shapes from then on such as pentagon and hexagon etc.
