A polygon is a closed 2-dimensional shape bounded by straight sides, where the sides do not cross. The simplest, with 3 sides, is a triangle. Then there is the quadrilateral (and all its variations), then a pentagon, hexagon and on and on and on. Forever.
What else can I help you with?
What mathematical word is used for shapes that are flat?
Polygons are flat shapes
Are 3 dimensional shapes considered polygons?
No.
What are the names of multi sided shapes?
multi sided shapes are called polygons
How many shapes are there?
6,776 growing, including convex and concave polygons, constructible polygons, cyclic polygons, and so much more
Which polygons tessellate with other shapes?
For any polygon, there will be other shapes such that, together, they can tessellate.
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.
Are polygons the same things as shapes?
yes. polygons are closed shapes with no curves. i.e. circles are not polygons, squares are, triangles are, ect
What typ of shapes are polygons?
Polygons are shapes that have 3 or more sides
What should a shape have in order to be a polygon?
Polygons are shapes with three sides or more. Circular shapes are NOT polygons.
Why are quadulaterals polygons?
quadrilateral polygons are shapes that have 4 sides
What shapes have area?
Polygons and 2 dimensional shapes
Are all two dimensional shapes are polygons?
Not all two-dimensional shapes are polygons. Polygons are specifically defined as closed, flat shapes with straight sides, such as triangles, rectangles, and pentagons. Other two-dimensional shapes, like circles and ellipses, do not have straight sides and therefore do not qualify as polygons.
What shapes are ploygons?
Polygons are shapes with 3 or more sides
Can some one give me a haiku about polygons?
Polygons come in Different sides, designs, shapes. You can not escape!
What are the names of sided shapes?

Are polygons closed shapes?
yes
How does knowing the area of a simple polygons help you determine the area of any shapes?
Most shapes can be divided into a combination of simple polygons.
