An element is anything that is put into a set. In math, this can be just about anything you can talk about in math: for example, different types of numbers; points; polygons; lines; planes; matrices; operations; functions; sets; and many other more.

An element is a member of a set. If, for example, S is the set of all polygons, then a triangle is an element of S, as is a decagon or a myriagon.
