A. A polygon is not a pentagon if and only if it does not have five sides 
is the answer as,
The given statement is of the form: 
A implies B.
or A 
⇒ B
Negating both sides gives us
not(A) implies not(B)
or 
¬A ⇒ ¬B.
Therefore, if both A and B are negative, the relation will hold true.
I'm sorry if that was too much of mathematical jargon.
Though, I hope you understand...
