Gravity.

The path of gravity is a straight line from the origin of an object to the very center of the Earth. If you hold a piece of string up, it will hang in a straight line. Same thing with tension; if you apply tension to either end of a string in opposite directions, the string will stretch to become a straight line.

The surface of still water, due to gravity, is an entirely flat surface. It also represents a straight line.

How do you get a perpendicular line?

To make perpendicular lines, draw a horizontal line. Then using a compass or tracing around the edge of a curved object, draw one circle ( or just a semi-circle) so that it crosses the horizontal straight line in at least one point. Now rotate the compass or move the curved object to draw another circle (or semi-circle). This second circle (or semi-circle) must cross through the horizontal straight line as the first one did. It also must cross through the first circle (or semi-circle) at two points- above the horizontal straight line and below the horizontal straight line. Next, draw a straight line from where the two circles (or semi-circles) meet above the horizontal straight line through to where they meet below the horizontal straight line. You now have a line perpendicular to the first line.

How do you draw a 9 sided polygon?

Draw a straight line segment. From one of its ends, draw another straight line segment. From the end of this straight line, draw another straight line segment which does not touch any of the existing lines. Repeat the same 5 more times. From the end of this last line, draw a straight line to the start of the first line. You may need to tweak some of the intermediate lines so that the last line does not intersect an existing line. That is it! A plane area enclosed by 9 straight lines = a 9-sided polygon.
