I meant circle as in x^2+y^2=r^2 centered at (0,0) etc.
And a polygon as in a closed area with finite sides.
Rectangle is a polygon with four sides and opposite sides are equal in

whose adjacent sides form 90 degrees. A square would have all four
sides equal.
The standard definition.

Cirles and the various polygons (interiors included) are all simply connected convexly bounded regions. They each topologically equivalent to another.
