The answer is 11 sides. You are required to solve the equation 44 diagonals ={n(n-1)/2} - n, where n is the number of sides of the polygon. Hope you have got your answer.

Given: diagonal of a polygon= 44 To find: no: of sides of a polygon (n) =? No: of diagonal of a polygon = n (n-3)/2 44=n^2-3n/2 88=n^2-3n n^2-3n-88=0 by factorising method we get n^2+8n-11n-88 n(n+8) -11(n+8) (n+8) (n-11) Therefore n= 11

When I took physical chemistry a long time ago, I found a two volume paperback set that was purely devoted to solving problems in physical chemistry; they went through the major areas, such as gas law, thermodynamics, etc., set up problems, and showed in detail how they were solved. And in graduate school, they helped me pass the physical chemistry prelims. I don't know if something like that is still published, but I would try and find out if they are.
