Which object type is a polygonal mesh using more than three-sided polygons to avoid invisible edges?

• A. Editable Mesh
• B. Editable Poly
• C. EM Face
• D. Normal

Answer: (B)

In polygon modeling, faces that have more than three sides (N-gons) let you describe a single surface without creating extra internal edges from triangulation. Editable Poly is the object type that provides direct support for these faces: its Polygon sub-object lets you create and edit faces with any number of sides. This makes it ideal for building a polygonal mesh that avoids invisible edges by keeping larger, non-triangulated faces intact. By contrast, Editable Mesh is an older type and doesn’t emphasize N-gon editing in the same way; EM Face is just a sub-object label within that system, and Normal refers to shading information rather than the geometry type. So the correct choice is Editable Poly.
