Bookmark or Share- Polygon | What is a Polygon? - Shape, Types, Formulas and Examples - BYJU'SA 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, the line segments of a polygon are called sides or edges. The point where two line segments meet is called vertex or corners, henceforth an angle is formed.
- What is a Polygon? Shape, Types, Formulas, Examples, Facts - SplashLearnIn geometry, a polygon can be defined as a flat or plane, two-dimensional closed shape bounded with straight sides. It does not have curved sides. The sides of a polygon are also called its edges. The points where two sides meet are the vertices (or corners) of a polygon. Here are a few examples of polygons.
- Polygons - Math is FunA regular polygon has all angles equal and all sides equal, otherwise it is irregular. Regular. Irregular. Concave or Convex. A convex polygon has no angles pointing inwards. More precisely, no internal angle can be more than 180°. If any internal angle is greater than 180° then the polygon is concave. ( Think: concave has a "cave" in it)

- Regular Polygons - Properties - Math is FunWe can learn a lot about regular polygons by breaking them into triangles like this: Notice that: the "base" of the triangle is one side of the polygon. the "height" of the triangle is the "Apothem" of the polygon. Now, the area of a triangle is half of the base times height, so: Area of one triangle = base × height / 2 = side × apothem / 2.
