INTRODUCTION
Polygon
Polygon is a simple close curve formed by the line segments is 
called a polygon. Triangle s a polygon with least number of 
lines
Triangle
? A plane figure formed by three non parallel line segment 
is called a triangle
Elements of triangle
? The three sides AB,BC,AC and angle abc,, angle bac and angle 
acb denoted by angle a, angle b and angle c together is known as 
six part of or elements of triangle abc
