ArcGIS Pro 3.4 API Reference Guide
ArcGIS.Core.Geometry Namespace / PolygonBuilderEx Class / CreatePolygon Method / CreatePolygon(IEnumerable<Polygon>,SpatialReference) Method
Parts to create the polyline. The spatial references of the polygons are checked for compatibility.
(Optional) The SpatialReference. The default value is null. If spatialReference is null, then the spatial reference will be inherited from polygons. which requires traversing through the enumeration of points. For improved performance, use CreatePolygon(IEnumerable<Polygon>,AttributeFlags,SpatialReference).
Example Version

CreatePolygon(IEnumerable<Polygon>,SpatialReference) Method
Convenience method to create a new instance of the Polygon class.
Syntax

Parameters

polygons
Parts to create the polyline. The spatial references of the polygons are checked for compatibility.
spatialReference
(Optional) The SpatialReference. The default value is null. If spatialReference is null, then the spatial reference will be inherited from polygons. which requires traversing through the enumeration of points. For improved performance, use CreatePolygon(IEnumerable<Polygon>,AttributeFlags,SpatialReference).

Return Value

Exceptions
ExceptionDescription
Incompatible spatial references.
polygons is null.
Remarks
The HasZ, HasM and HasID properties are inherited from polygons. If you don't want these properties to be inherited, you can set them yourself by using CreatePolygon(IEnumerable<Polygon>,AttributeFlags,SpatialReference).
Example
Create an N-sided regular polygon
// <summary>
// Create an N-sided regular polygon.  A regular sided polygon is a polygon that is equiangular (all angles are equal in measure) 
// and equilateral (all sides are equal in length).  See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regular_polygon
// </summary>
// <param name="numSides">The number of sides in the polygon.</param>
// <param name="center">The center of the polygon.</param>
// <param name="radius">The distance from the center of the polygon to a vertex.</param>
// <param name="rotation">The rotation angle in radians of the start point of the polygon. The start point will be
// rotated counterclockwise from the positive x-axis.</param>
// <returns>N-sided regular polygon.</returns>
// <exception cref="ArgumentException">Number of sides is less than 3.</exception>
