A dodecagon is a 12-sided polygon. Several special types of dodecagons are illustrated above. In particular, a dodecagon with vertices equally spaced around a circle and with all sides the same length is a regular polygon known as a regular dodecagon.

What is four sided shape with no equal sides called?
Irregular Quadrilateral: a four-sided shape where no sides are equal in length and no internal angles are the same. All internal angles still add up to 360°, as with all other regular quadrilaterals. A five-sided shape is called a pentagon.
What is 1million sided shape called?
A megagon or 1 000 000-gon is a polygon with 1 million sides (mega-, from the Greek μέγας megas, meaning “great”). Even if drawn at the size of the Earth, a regular megagon would be very difficult to distinguish from a circle.
