a shape.
The real answer is a polygon as long as the lines do not intersect anywhere but the endpoints. It could also be called a figure.
yes it does. a polygon has to be a closed figure with a least three sides and it can only have straight sides--no curves
Polygon
An equilateral triangle has three equal sides1. 1. Any triangle has only three sides. A triangle is a closed figure that is bounded by three straight lines.
A polygon is a 2-dimensional shape with 3 or more sidesa closed plane figure with three or more sides that are straight
A polygon is a closed figure bounded by sides. A triangle is a closed figure bounded by three sides. Therefore, according to the definition of polygon triangle is a polygon.
Quadrilateral
yes it does. a polygon has to be a closed figure with a least three sides and it can only have straight sides--no curves
Three straight sides Closed figure two dimensional three angles
Polygon
a figure, esp. a closed plane figure, having three or more, usually straight, sides.
A polygon is any closed plane figure bounded by three or more straight sides.
A polygon. It has to have straight sides, so that it can be divided into triangles.
A closed 2-dimensional figure bounded by straight lines. A polygon can have three or more sides.
square
It is a 2-dimensional figure. It has THREE or MORE sides.
A simple closed figure formed by three or more straight line segments is called a polygon. Polygons can have various numbers of sides, such as triangles (three sides), quadrilaterals (four sides), and pentagons (five sides). They are characterized by their straight edges and the fact that they do not intersect themselves. Polygons can be classified as regular, with equal side lengths and angles, or irregular, with varying lengths and angles.
A three sided closed plane figure (shape) is a triangle.
