Are these instructions for resetting an android device the same for resetting a Polaroid A8?

I inherited the A8 Polaroid tablet. Unfortunately, the first owner put a password on it and now can't remember it.
How can I bypass this screen so that I can use the tablet.

We cannot assist with password issues. You would have to contact the prior owner for the password and then change it over to one of your own after entering the device. Please read this thread http/www.tomsguide.com/forum/id-2317976/read-passwords-lock-codes-pin-numbers.html
