No. A parallelogram, for example, is not a regular polygon. Even a rhombus, with parallel sides of equal lengths is not.

The apothem is a perpendicular bisector of each side of a regular polygon?
always
Are all polygons regular?
Not all polygons are regular by definition. An irregular polygon may have non-congruent sides or non congruent angles or both. A regular polygon will always have both congruent sides and angles.
Are the opposite sides of a square always parallel?
Yes. A square has two sets of equal and parallel opposite sides. All four sides and all four angles (right angles) are equal.
If the exterior angle of a polygon is 22.5 degrees how many sides does it have?
Since the sum of the exterior angles of a polygon is ALWAYS 360 degrees, (assuming this is a regular polygon), there will be 360 / 22.5 = 16 sides
Is a rhombus also a square?
A rhombus can be a square, but not necessarily.A square is always also a rhombus.A rhombus has 4 equal sides with opposite sides parallel and opposite angles equal.A square has 4 equal sides with opposite sides parallel and all angles 90o.
Which polygon is always regular?
A Square is a polygon that is always regular.
Is a regular polygon always equiangular?
Yes, a regular polygon is always equiangular.
Can a regular polygon be equilateral?
a regular polygon is always equilateral
What polygon is always a regular polygon?
A square, pentagon, decagon, octagon are always regular polygons.
Are regular polygons always equiangular?
A regular polygon is always equiangular.
Does a polygon have parellel sides?
It can have parallel sides but not always.
Is a convex polygon always a regular polygon?
No, a scalene triangle, for example, is a convex poygon but it is not regular.
What polygon is always regular?
Squares, rhombera, and equilateral triangles are always regular.
Can a regular polygon always tile the plane?
Not always
Is the radius of a regular polygon always greater than the apothem?
yes the radius of a regular polygon is always greater than the apothem
Are the angle bisectors of a regular polygon sometimes concurrent?
The angle bisectors of a regular polygon are always concurrent. And the point that they meet at is also the meeting point of the perpendicular bisectors of the sides. If it is a polygon with an odd nmber of sides, the "medians" [line from vertex to mid-point of opposite side] and "altitudes" [perpendicular from vertex to opposite side] will also meet at the same point.
What is the difference between an equiangular polygon and a regular polygon?
The term regular polygon is almost always used to refer to a polygon that has equal interior angles and equal side lengths. In that light, the equiangular polygon and a regular polygon are the same thing.
