A polygon is a simple closed curve made up of straight line segments only.
The adjoining figure is a polygon.
(i) closed
(ii) bounded by five line segments AB, BC, CD, DE and AE.
Also, it is clear from the given polygon that:
(i) the five line segments AB, BC, CD, DE and AE intersect at their end points.
(ii) two line segments, with a common vertex, are not collinear i.e. the angle at any vertex is not 180°.
Polygons are classified according to the number of sides or vertices they have.
