Solution

The correct option is B

False


A polygon is defined as a two dimensional, simple closed figure, formed by straight lines. A circle is not a simple closed figure, and not formed by straight lines, and hence, not a polygon. It is often thought as a polygon with infinite sides but it is not true. A polygon with infinite sides will "look like" a circle but won't be a circle.
