Polygon: a figure formed by coplanar segments

with one distinct interior region

Figure A, Figure B, and Figure D would be considered polygons.

Notice that those figures I mentioned above are

composed of line segments, and nothing else.

In addition, these figures don't have two separate

interior regions and figures that do aren't polygons.

Figure C would not be a polygon because

it's formed by a curve rather than line segments.
