Solution

The correct option is A
True

A polygon can be seen as any 2-dimensional closed shape formed with straight lines. Triangles, quadrilaterals, pentagons, and hexagons are all examples of polygons.
Therefore, Andy’s land is a polygon because it is a simple closed figure and is made up of straight edges only.
