A cylinder has circular parallel bases
false
There are several cases: any 3 dimensional or more object. Since a polygon is defined as being confined to a single plane, any shape that violates the plane is not a polygon but may still have parallel bases. For cases in only 2 dimensions: Any object that has curves in addition to the parallel bases. A polygon's definition includes only straight sides. Finally, unclosed shapes can have 2 parallel bases with out being polygons even if in a single plane and made up of only straight line sides. A polygon must be closed.
The importance is that parallel lines must never meet.
2. One at the top and one at the bottom. The face that is cylindrical cannot be counted as a base because it is curved - in 3D shapes the base must be flat.
