Polygon[ <Point>, ..., <Point> ]: Returns a polygon defined by the given points.; Example:
Polygon[(1, 1), (3, 0), (3, 2), (0, 4)] yields a quadrilateral.

Polygon[ <Point>, <Point>, <Number of Vertices> ]: Creates a regular polygon with n vertices.; Example:
Polygon[(1, 1), (4, 1), 6] yields a hexagon.

Polygon[ <List of Points> ]: Returns a polygon defined by the points in the list.; Example:
Polygon[{(0, 0), (2, 1), (1, 3)}] yields a triangle.
