Those arc sides are parallel in polar coordinates.

Also pretty sure definition of a shape requires only one enclosed or contiguous area.

This one is enclosed and contiguous though, the lines of the triangle end where the circular line starts. (The rest is just a drafting residue.)

No, it is 2 contiguous regions. The line of separation is the bounding line of a “shape.”

Otherwise, the entire whitespace outside of the region is also part of the shape, as is anything it touches.

You don’t normally need to specify that the sides are parallel if you specify four right angles.
