A polygon (literally "many angle", see Wiktionary for the etymology) is a closed planar path composed of a finite number of sequential line segments. The straight line segments that make up the polygon are called its sides or edges and the points where the sides meet are the polygon's vertices. ...

a flat, 2d polytope (an object in 2 dimensions defined by linear constraints) delimited by straight edges and vertices. Examples include triangles, squares, decagons. We normally prefer all vertices to be distinct, and that edges do not cross. We don't like it either when the polygon is disconnected (eg has several, distinct parts that are not connected).

In the context of 3D modeling, a polygon is a multi-sided object composed of edges, vertices, and faces. An edge is a line segment that forms one side of a polygon. A vertex is a point at which two edges meet. A face is the area enclosed by several edges. The most basic polygon is a triangular face. Since the three points of a triangle must always be on the same plane, we can say that all triangular faces are planar. ...
