Five-sided figure (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

pentagon

'five-sided figure' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for pentagon that I've seen before include "Headquarters of the US Defense Department" , "rectilineal figure" , "Figure - US military HQ" , "US military leaders" , "top brass" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent, the Sydney Morning Herald, The Mirror, the L.A. Times Daily, the Evening Standard and The Times.
