E-CONTENT (POLYGONS) Introduction A polygon is a two - dimensional geometric figure that has a finite number of sides. The sides of a polygon are made of straight line segments connected to each other end to end. Thus, line segments of a polygon are called sides or edges. The points where two line segments meet is called vertex or corners, henceforth an angle is formed. An example of a polygon is a triangle with three sides. A circle is also a plane figure but is not considered a polygon, because it is a curved shape and does not have sides or angles. Therefore, we can say, all the polygons are 2d shapes but not all the two - dimensional figures are polygons. We can observe different types of polygons in our daily existence and we might be using them knowingly or unknowingly. In this article, you will see the meaning and definition of a polygon, types of a polygon, real-life examples of polygon shapes along with their properties and related formulas in detail. Object
