Re: [svgwg] [feature request]basic shapes 'triangle' element (#954)

I'm not sure I got you right. Frankly I don't quite understand how a native SVG `<triangle>` could solve your described problems.  
You may instead ask for help on Stackoverflow or Math Exchange – when it comes to geometry. 
What's safe to say: *most* (if not all) CAD related applications export *terrible* SVGs – mostly a mess of ten thousands of single disconnected `<line>` elements. Béziers? Arcs? Shapes? Usually not used despite being available since day 1.   
So I don't think there is anything wrong with the `<polygon>` or `<polyline>`  element (you may need to flip the Y-axis to get the translation to a traditional Cartesian coordinate system) but pretty much everything wrong with CAD related SVG exports=)
