Maybe a parallelogram. You should do a Google image search for parallelogram and see if it's the shape you're thinking of.
Yes, a seven sided figure, known as a "heptagon", has straight sides. As long as none of the sides are curved or doesn't connect, then it's a polygon. i will end this with an epic smiley face of doom! :D
A polygon is a plane figure with 3 or more straight sides and angles. A plane figure is a flat enclosed figure made of straight lines, curved lines, or both.
Because that is how a polyhedron is defined.
Although a polygon is usually thought of as a two-dimensional figure with at least three sides, there is nothing in the definition of a polygon that prohibits its use for the classification of a one-sided figure. A one-sided figure is known as a henagon or a monogon. A polygon, by definition, has as many vertices as it has sides, so a single-sided polygon would have to, in order to meet that criterion, curve in on itself so that the two ends of the side meet to form a vertex. In order for the polygon to not be curved, it would have to be made up of two straight lines (this figure is known as a digon). So no, a polygon cannot be a single straight line.
no because a quadrilateral has straight sides if it were curved it wouldn't be a polygon because polygons must have straight sides
no, a quadrilateral cant be curved because it is a closed STRAIGHT sided figure with four sides...
A simple polygon is a closed, straight-sided figure in which the sides do not overlap.

If it is a 2-dimensional figure, it is a polygon.
No.A quadrilateral is any four sided figure.So it doesn't matter whether one of the sides is curved or straight as long as it is four sided.
polygon: it refers to a figure that has closed sides and straight edges with more than 3 sides
quadrilateral shape
Provided we are talking about a 2D figure with straight sides, it is an octadecagon.
A triangle has to have straight sides
