A polygon is any plane figure bounded only by straight lines. A triangle is therefore a polygon with three sides and a pentagon is a polygon with five sides.

A convex polygon has no interior angle greater than 180° .

A re-entrant polygon has at least one interior angle greater than 180° .

A regular polygon has all its sides and angles equal.

The sum of the interior angles of a polygon is 2n - 4 right angles (n is the number of sides).

The sum of the exterior angles of a convex polygon is 360° .
