Polygonal chain: Applications, Variations & Parametrization

In geometry, a polygonal chain is a connected series of line segments. More formally, a polygonal chain ⁠ P {\displaystyle P} ⁠ is a curve specified by a sequence of points ( A 1 , A 2 , … , A n ) {\displaystyle (A_{1},A_{2},\dots ,A_{n})} called its vertices. The curve itself consists of the line segments connecting the consecutive vertices.
