Does a polygon have sides that are line segments true or false?
False. They can only be straight line segments: there cannot be any curved line segments.
What is a plane figure formed by 4 segments called side?
It is called a polygon. * * * * * Yes, but only if they are straight line segments. And, in that case, the shape is a quadrilateral.
What is definition of line in math?
a straight or curved continuous extent of length without breadth.
Of those numbers whose English representation in capital letters consists only of straight lines only one number has a value equal to the number of straight line segments required to write it out What?

What shape is a simple closed figure formed by line segments?
A polygon, but only if all the line segments are coplanar.
Does a polygon have sides that are line segments true or false?
False. They can only be straight line segments: there cannot be any curved line segments.
How do you explain why a circle is not a polygon?
A circle is composed by an infinite sequence of straight line segments, while a polygon has a finite sequence of straight line segments.
What polygon has a long curved line?
A polygon is made up only of line segments. If a 2-dimensional closed figure has even one curve line, then it is not a polygon.
Which term best describes a figure formed by three segments connecting three noncollinear points?
A triangle, but only if the line segments are straight.
What is a plane figure formed by 4 segments called side?
It is called a polygon. * * * * * Yes, but only if they are straight line segments. And, in that case, the shape is a quadrilateral.
Could the segments 9 8 17 form a triangle?
No, they could only form a straight line.
Is a 'U' a polygon?
No, the "U" shape is not a polygon. Polygons are closed figures made up only of line segments. The "U" shape includes a curved section, and is usually not a closed figure.
Why do most states have boundaries that are not straight line segments?
Because they cannot form a tessellation. Tessellations can only be formed by regular polygons.
What is definition of line in math?
a straight or curved continuous extent of length without breadth.
Is a bell a polygon?
A bell is a shape, but not a polygon. Polygons are constructed only from straight line segments, they do not contain curves (a circle is not a polygon either, unless you imagine it as being composed of infinitely many line segments, each of which is infinitely short).
What is formed by three line segments that intersect only at their end point?
what of a triangle has three line segments that intersect only at their endpoints
Of those numbers whose English representation in capital letters consists only of straight lines only one number has a value equal to the number of straight line segments required to write it out What?
