You might be able to construct an irregular octagon that way, but for a regular one, no.

Where are there perpendicular lines in an octogan?

There are no perpendicular lines in a regular octagon. Perpendicular lines are found in squares and rectangles, where the angles are 90 degree angles. Regular octagons, unlike squares, have so many sides that the angles joining the sides cannot be as sharp as 90 degrees. Instead, the angles are much larger and the sides are much too wide apart to be anywhere near perpendicular. It is possible, however, to construct an irregular octagon having perpendicular lines.

What has 4 sets of parallel sides and no perpendicular sides?

A rhombic octagon. An ordinary regular octagon does have perpendicular sides. They do not meet in the outline of the octagon because they are alternate, but they are still perpendicular. However, in the same way that a rhombus is a distorted square, a rhombic octagon can have 4 pairs of parallel sides but no perpendicular ones.

Does an octagon always have perpendicular sides?

No! An Octagon that is not regular can have 8 lines that meet at any angle provided that they ultimately create an 8 sided enclosed shape.A regular Octagon, however, will always have pairs of sides that are perpendicular. In a regular Octagon the interior angles must all be equal and must sum to 1080 degrees (6 x 180 degrees). Accordingly the interior angles will all equal 135 degrees. As a consequence the exterior angles equal 45 degrees and since two exterior angles equal 90 degrees every side will be perpendicular to the sides that are adjacent but one in either direction. Likewise opposite sides (4 exterior angles apart) will be parallel.ThanksNoob headIf it is regular, yes. Each side of a regular octagon has two other sides that are perpendicular to it.
