Technically the explosion of a Red giant is not called a Supernova as the mass of the star is not great enough. However the explosion from a Red Super Giant can be called a supernova. A normal Red giant doesn't actually explode, the core just collapses again to cause a white dwarf and the outer layers are ejected to form planetary Nebulae.
