In geometry, a nonagon (/ ˈ n ɒ n ə ɡ ɒ n /) or enneagon (/ ˈ ɛ n i ə ɡ ɒ n /) is a nine-sided polygon or 9-gon. The name nonagon is a prefix hybrid formation , from Latin ( nonus , "ninth" + gonon ), used equivalently, attested already in the 16th century in French nonogone and in English from the 17th century.

Individual polygons are named (and sometimes classified) according to the number of sides, combining a Greek-derived numerical prefix with the suffix -gon, e.g. pentagon, dodecagon. The triangle, quadrilateral and nonagon are exceptions, although the regular forms trigon, tetragon, and enneagon are sometimes encountered as well.
In geometry, a bigon, [1] digon, or a 2-gon, is a polygon with two sides and two vertices.Its construction is degenerate in a Euclidean plane because either the two sides would coincide or one or both would have to be curved; however, it can be easily visualised in elliptic space.

A regular polygon with n sides can be constructed with ruler, compass, and angle trisector if and only if =, where r, s, k ≥ 0 and where the p i are distinct Pierpont primes greater than 3 (primes of the form +). [8]: Thm. 2 These polygons are exactly the regular polygons that can be constructed with Conic section, and the regular polygons ...
In particular this is true for regular polygons with evenly many sides, in which case the parallelograms are all rhombi. For the regular icositetragon, m=12, and it can be divided into 66: 6 squares and 5 sets of 12 rhombs. This decomposition is based on a Petrie polygon projection of a 12-cube.
