Try B and D

A polygon is a shape, made with straight lines, with two sides that are parallel. This means it can't be a circle and it can't be a triangle. The classic example of a polygon is a rectangle, but a square is just a rectangle with all four sides parallel and of the same length.

A polygon is a closed plane figure of three or more line segments, so a circle doesn't seem to be one.

C. Circle.

A Polygon is any closed figure with 3 or more sides. Circle has no sides, so it cannot be a polygon. :]
