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
