Intersecting Lines
Part of the gate in the back of the school has lines that are intersecting. In this case, the line in the middle is a support for the vertical lines.

Polygon
The American Flag is a great example of several polygons. In this case, each stripe is a rectangle along with the blue. The stars are polygons as well which are convex.
