Many polygons, such as squares, rectangles, rhombi, parallelograms, etc. have more than 1 pairs of parallel line segments. Trapezoids have only 1 pair of parallel line segments. These few shapes are just quadrilaterals, other polygons also have more than 1 pair of parallel line segments (e.g. regularhexagons, octagons, etc.). Triangles never have any parallel line segments.

If two of the line segments of a polygon are parallel what is the least number of sides it could have?
4sides
What is the least number of line segments needed to form a polygon?
Three.
How do you explain why a circle is not a polygon?
A circle is composed by an infinite sequence of straight line segments, while a polygon has a finite sequence of straight line segments.
What are the line segments that form a polygon called?
The line segments that form a polygon called are called sides or edges.
Are circles polygons?
NO, a circle is not a polygon. A polygon is composed of a finite set of straight line segments, and a circle has NO straight line segments.
