'poly' is from Latin and means 'many'. 'gon' , again from Latin, and means a 2-dimentional figure. So 'polygon' means a many sided two=dimensional figure.
It means angle or corner. (poly gon - many angled)
a Heptagon is a seven sided polygon
No. In geometry polygons refer to flat shapes, that only have two dimensions. From Greek Poly- means many, and -gon means angles. Polyhedrons are the three dimensional equivalent. So a cube is a polyhedron, not a polygon.
Polygon comes from two parts: Poly -> Many Gon -> angle So literally: poly-gon = many-angles. A polygon is a plane with more than two corners
