Understanding the Shapes
In this question, we need to identify which of the four words represents a geometric shape that is different from the others. Let’s break down each option:
1. Hendecagon
- A hendecagon is an 11-sided polygon.
2. Hexagon
- A hexagon is a 6-sided polygon.
3. Heptagon
- A heptagon is a 7-sided polygon.
4. Pentagon
- A pentagon is a 5-sided polygon.
Identifying the Odd One Out
Now, let’s analyze the similarities and differences:
- Hendecagon, Heptagon, and Pentagon all have more than 5 sides and are classified as polygons with a specific number of sides.
- Hexagon, on the other hand, is a common shape with 6 sides.
Conclusion
The odd one out is option B (Hexagon) because:
- It is the only shape that has a different number of sides compared to the others in the list.
- The pentagon has 5 sides, the heptagon has 7 sides, and the hendecagon has 11 sides, all of which indicate that they are higher polygon types compared to the hexagon.
Thus, the answer is Hexagon.

Here all the polygon are of odd number of sides except hexagone.
Hendecagon is a polygon of 11 sides, Heptagon is a polygon of 7 sides and Pentagon is a polygon of 5 sides.
Only Hexagon is an odd one here as it has even number of sides i.e. 6 sides.
Hence, option B is the correct answer.
