Do polygons have curved lines?
no
Is a square with curved in corners a polygon?
no because it will become round and polygons are straight lines.
Why are cylinders and cones not considered to be a polyh?
Polyhedra are 3-dimensional shapes bounded by polygons. Polygons are flat [plane] shapes bounded by straight lines. So a polyhedron cannot have any curved faces.
Why is the shape of a football not a polygon?
A football has a curved surface and polygons are flat. You can approximate a curved surface quite well if you use enough polygons but each polygon will still be flat and a football does have a curved (and rough) surface. Using a few thousand polygons you can create an approximation of a football with stitching seams and every detail but you will not have a curved surface you will have an approximation of a curved surface.
What polygon has 8 stright sides and 1 curved side?
Polygons can't have curved sides so the answer is not a polygon.
Do polygons have curved lines?
no
Is a circle a polygon with curved sides?
No, all polygons have straight lines. All lines are straight
What are the features of polygons that allow them to be polygons?
a polygon has:no curved sidesclosedconnected, like no crossed lines that go beyond the angle
Is a square with curved in corners a polygon?
no because it will become round and polygons are straight lines.
Which alphabet letters are nonconvex polygons?
None. They either consist of curved sides or are not closed shapes (have lines "sticking out").
Why is a cone not called a polyhedron?
A polyhedron is a solid object bounded by polygons. Polygons are plane shapes [bounded by straight lines]. The curved surface of a cone is not a polygon and so the cone is not bounded by polygons and therefore, a cone is not a polyhedron.

Are all shapes polygons?
Not all shapes are polygons. Polygons are shapes that have to have straight sides and be closed figures. So a shape that is curved would not be a polygon.
What are the curved lines?
Lines that is curved. E.G the outline of a circle.
What polygons have three or more lines of symmetry?
Regular polygons.
What are shapes without square corners?
Most triangles, quadrilaterals, and other polygons with five or more sides; most closed shapes with curved sides.Most triangles, quadrilaterals, and other polygons with five or more sides; most closed shapes with curved sides.Most triangles, quadrilaterals, and other polygons with five or more sides; most closed shapes with curved sides.Most triangles, quadrilaterals, and other polygons with five or more sides; most closed shapes with curved sides.
