Polygons

A polygon is closed plane figure formed by the joining of three or more straight lines. A regular polygon is one that has equal sides and equal interior angles.

Note: After about 6 sides mathematicians usually refer to these polygons as n-gons, so a 23 sided polygon would be called a 23-gon.

The sum of the measures of the angles of a convex polygon with n sides is (n - 2)180.
