Polygons are 2-dimensional shapes. They are made of straight lines, and the shape is "closed" (all the lines connect up). Polygon comes from Greek. Poly- means "many" and -gon means "angle". A regular polygon has all angles equal and all sides equal, otherwise it is irregular. A convex polygon has no angles pointing inwards. More @Wikipedia
