8-5 Classifying Polygons Side Remember! Vertex Vertices is plural for vertex. Course 2 Triangles and rectangles are examples of polygons. A polygonis a closed plane figure formed by three or more line segments. Each line segment forms a sideof the polygon, and meets, but does not cross, another line segment at a common point. This common point is a vertex of a polygon. The polygon at left has six sides and six vertices.
