It is not returning any figure, It is returning null.

can anyone please help to make this memsql Geospatial Function work
Expanding on Damien_The_Unbeliever's answer above, the GEOGRAPHY_POINT syntax should not be inside a string. You can either define the point within a string in WKT syntax POINT(long lat), or using the GEOGRAPHY_POINT syntax (but not in a string).
So for your first query that wasn't working:
memsql> SELECT round(GEOGRAPHY_DISTANCE("GEOGRAPHY_POINT(-97.741890, 30.219940)", "POLYGON ((-97.11090087890626 33.08693925905123,-96.52862548828126 33.063924198120645,-96.56158447265626 32.80343616698929,-97.06970214843751 32.778037985363675,-97.11090087890626 33.08693925905123))"),0) FROM DUAL;

You can correctly write it as either of these two:
memsql> SELECT round(GEOGRAPHY_DISTANCE("POINT(-97.741890 30.219940)", "POLYGON ((-97.11090087890626 33.08693925905123,-96.52862548828126 33.063924198120645,-96.56158447265626 32.80343616698929,-97.06970214843751 32.778037985363675,-97.11090087890626 33.08693925905123))"),0) FROM DUAL;
