In geometry a digon is a degenerate polygon with two sides and two vertices. In Euclidean geometry, a digon is usually considered to be an impossible object, because its two sides coincide. However, in spherical geometry a digon with distinct sides can be drawn by placing two vertices anywhere on a great circle. If the two vertices are antipodal then the digon is regular.
