A polygon is a two-dimensional shape defined by its vertices and edges. While polygons themselves exist in two dimensions, they can be extended into higher dimensions through the concept of polyhedra in three dimensions, and more generally, to polytopes in higher dimensions. Thus, while a polygon itself is limited to two dimensions, related geometric constructs can exist in three or more dimensions.
Yes, a polygon can conceptually grow from a zero-dimensional object, such as a point. By expanding a point outward in multiple directions, you can create a line segment (one-dimensional), and by further extending it into a closed shape, you can form a polygon (two-dimensional). This process illustrates how dimensions can evolve from simpler forms.
A polygon does not grow by a one-dimensional object; rather, it consists of two-dimensional shapes defined by a finite number of straight line segments. A one-dimensional object, such as a line, has only length and no width or area, which means it cannot form or expand a polygon on its own. Instead, polygons can be transformed or scaled while remaining two-dimensional, but the addition of a one-dimensional element would not constitute growth in the polygon's geometry.
No, a polygon is a 2-dimensional object.
A polygon is a Two dimensional figure that is closed.
An octahedron is not a polygon. A polygon is a two dimensional shape. An octahedron is a three dimensional shape and is classified as a polyhedron.

No, a polygon is a 2-dimensional object.
No. A polygon is a 2-dimensional figure. A polyhedron is 3-dimensional.
No A polygon is two-dimensional A cube is three-dimensional
A polygon is 2 dimensional shape whereas a non polygon can be 3 dimensional shape
Every polygon is 2-dimensional.
No. A cube is a 3-dimensional object while a polygon is 2-dimensional.
Talking about a "2-D polygon" is the same as talking about a "polygon." By definition a polygon is a 2-dimensional figure, so all polygons are 2-dimensional and anything that is not 2-dimensional cannot be a polygon. Of course, not all 2-dimensional figures are polygons.

An octahedron is not a polygon. A polygon is a two dimensional shape. An octahedron is a three dimensional shape and is classified as a polyhedron.
