Apsolotely not it is far away from ever being one unless you mechcanicaly pulled both ends of it and streched it out. Dr. Joseph Blue No!
Polygon is closed plane figure made up of 3 or more line segments.
Sphere is a three-dimensional figure with all points in space at an equaldistance from a fixed point.
The fixed point is called as center of the sphere.
So, a polygon is a two-dimensional figure and a sphere is a three-dimensional shape.
Hence, a sphere is not a polygon.

State a definition for a polygon inscribed in a sphere?
Inscribed polygon: a polygon contained within a circle, with each side being a chord of a circle.Chord: end points connected to an arc or a semicircle, forming a segment that lies in the interior of a circle.
Make a generalization for each set of polygons?
Polygons are unbounded because they close on themselves in a circuit. An infinite polygon goes on forever, making it unbounded. A skew polygon has three dimensions of zig-zagging and a spherical polygon, on the sphere surface, is a circuit of corners and sides.
What shape has 0 vertices's 0 edges and 1 face?
I believe that the only polyhedron or polygon that own all of these features to be a sphere
Is cube a polygon?
Cube is a 3 Dimentional object and polygon is a 2 Dimentional object, so cube can not be considered as polygon. this is same question if circle is a sphere? (dimensional)
What is the minimum number of sides of a polygon?
Two straight lines cannot enclose a space - therefore three lines is the minimum requirement for a polygon. I would like to note that a digon is a polygon and it has 2 sides. Therefore, the minimum is 2. However, some people call a digon an improper polygon since it contradicts the definition of polygon. A digon can only be made on a sphere, so the answer is never truly correct.
