Answer:
The number so sides of the polygon are 14.
Solution :
The number of diagonals beingd=\frac{n(n-3)}{2}
where, n is the number of sides.
77={n(n-3)}{2}
154=n(n-3)
n2-3n-154=0
n2-3n-154=0
n2-14n+11n-154=0
n(n-14)+11(n-14)=0
(n-14)(n+11)=0
n=-11,14
Reject n=-11 and Accept n=14
Therefore, The number so sides of the polygon is 14.
