The coordinate system for SVG is made up of one quadrant, where (0, 0) starts in the top-left corner. As you go left, x-values increase positively, and as you go down, y-values increase. With this information, let's take a look at creating a polygon. When you provide the polygon element with a set of points, it takes these points, plots them on the coordinate system we just talked about, and connects them from first to last.
