00:00hello everyone welcome to mulita shine Academy in this video I will be explaining you what is
00:09a polygon a polygon is a simple closed figure made up of line segments and it must have minimum
00:19of three vertices so we know the simplest close figure with three vertices is a triangle okay
00:27triangle has three vertices and three line segments and it is a closed figure since no
00:33ends are open so this is a polygon triangle is a polygon with three vertices now suppose I have
00:45a square or a rectangle so these are the closed figures also with four line segments and four
00:56vertices right so these are known as quadrilaterals why because quad means four having four vertices or
01:06four line segments becomes a quadrilateral here triangle tri means three so triangle has three
01:13vertices chord means four so it has four vertices right now if I have five vertices it becomes a
01:21pentagon suppose one two three four and five so this will be a pentagon penta means five so five
01:32vertices this is also a closed figure so this is also a polygon similarly hexagon having six vertices
01:40will be a closed figure and you go on increasing the line segments and increasing the number of
01:47vertices and if the figure is completely closed it will be known as a polygon in the next video I will
01:55be explaining you interiors of a polygon exteriors of a polygon and much more so keep watching thank you very much
