I dont know what I do wrong here?

Polygon.cs 
namespace Treehouse.CodeChallenges
{
    class Polygon
    {
        public readonly int NumSides;


        public Polygon(int numSides) 
        {
            NumSides = numSides;

        }

    }

    class Square : Polygon
    {
       public readonly int SideLength;

        public Square(int sideLength) : base(sideLength, numSides)
    {

       SideLength = sideLength;

:point_right: The base (Polygon) constructor only takes one argument.

And squares always have 4 sides, so you might write: "base(4)"
