Hello,
I am a newbie to Solidworks and sorry if I ask simple questions. I am not able to mate the Extruded polygon part to the perforated surface( it doesn't fit into the hole). I selected a side wall of two faces, face and edge but none of them work.
I will be grateful if you could help me.

Re: Mate a Polygon
You can use profile center mate and it do the job (just one mate).
And if you do not want that, then you can add 3 mates.
I have also attached the files for your reference.

Re: Mate a Polygon
Deepak (@gupta9665) is correct. The simplest would be to delete the existing mates and use a profile center mate.

Re: Mate a Polygon
If you used the regular polygon sketch element, then this comes with a circle embedded in the sketch.
Use the circle from both sketch elements and make them concentric, then make 1 face parallel.
But the profile center way is just as good (although it is a more complex mate, which sometimes will error out in Solidworks).
