Best Answer

A polygon.

---- nope sorry.. i could have two lines they are non-collinear .. and they meet - ie. they intersect.. and well, they will have = made an angle - by definition of what it means .. when two non-collinear lines meet..

polygon has to be closed..

there is nothing in the statement of the problem that one can use to state even is there are more than 2 sides.. let alone if its a closed set..

Does a polygon have sides that are line segments?

A polygon is defined as "a plane figure that is bounded by a finite chain of straight line segments closing in a loop to form a closed chain or circuit"... So - Yes.


What are the line segments that form a polygon called?

The line segments that form a polygon called are called sides or edges.


Angles that add up to 180?

If all of the angles add to 180 degrees the figure is a triangle. * * * * * That is if they form a plane figure. Angles that add to 1890 degrees are called supplementary angles.


What is the complement theorem?

If the noncommon sides of two adjacent angles form a right angle, then the angles are complementary angles.


What shape is quadrillateral?

A quadrilateral is a four-sided polygon (closed shape made with line segments). Quadrilaterals have four angles (vertices) and come in many different shapes, depending on the length of their sides and the kinds of angles they have. The five most common quadrilaterals are the rectangle, square, parallelogram, rhombus, and trapezoid. A rectangle is a quadrilateral with opposite sides congruent (same length) and parallel. It has four right (90º) angles. A square has ALL four sides that are congruent, and two pairs of parallel sides. It also has four right angles. A parallelogram has two pairs of parallel sides. They form two acute and two obtuse angles. A rhombus has two pairs of parallel sides, but all sides are congruent. They also form two acute and two obtuse angles. Finally, a trapezoid, has only one pair of parallel sides. The parallel sides are NOT congruent. A trapezoid can be formed by two acute and two obtuse angles, or by two right angles, one acute, and one obtuse angle.

What are perpendicular line segments?

Perpendicular line segments are line segments that cross with each other and form angles of 90 degrees.

When the midpoints of adjacent sides of a quadrilateral are connected by segments these segments form a what?

It forms a parallelogram.


Segments are perpendicular what kind of angles are form?

By definition, any lines/segments that are perpendicular to each other either do, or (in the case of non-intersecting segments) would, intersect each other at right angles. A right angle being a 90* angle. Therefore, perpendicular, intersecting line segments will form 4 90* angles.

What are perpendicular angles?

Two lines or segments that form a right angle are said to be perpendicular.


Why must a polygon have 3 or more sides and angles?

A polygon must be a closed region without any curves or arches. so you cant close one or two segments to form a polygon
