In geometry, an octagon () is an eight-sided polygon or 8-gon.
An octagon is a shape with eight straight sides and eight angles. You'll encounter octagons in everyday life, like in stop signs and architectural designs, making it a basic geometric form worth understanding.

In geometry, an octagon () is an eight-sided polygon or 8-gon.
A regular octagon has Schläfli symbol {8} and can also be constructed as a quasiregular truncated square, t{4}, which alternates two types of edges. A truncated octagon, t{8} is a hexadecagon, {16}. A 3D analog of the octagon can be the rhombicuboctahedron with the triangular faces on it like the replaced edges, if one considers the octagon to be a truncated square.
