1.6 Two Dimensional Figures By the end of class you will be able to classify polygons and calculate their perimeters.
What is a polygon? Polygons: Not Polygons:
Polygons: Closed figure formed by a finite number of coplanar segments such that: The sides that have a common vertex are not collinear Each side intersects exactly two other sides, but only at their endpoints
Types of Polygons # Sides Name 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 n
Classifying Polygons Convex Concave
Angles and Sides Equilateral Polygons Equiangular Polygons All Sides are congruent All Angles are congruent
Regular Polygons: Have congruent sides and congruent angles
Practice: Draw it A: A regular quadrilateral B: An irregular pentagon C: A concave octagon D: A convex hexagon
Perimeter and Circumference Perimeter-distance around an object How do you calculate it? -Perimeter of a circle??
Calculate the perimeters A square with a side that measures 5in A rectangle with a length of 3m and a width of 9cm. A circle with a radius of length 6m.
Find the perimeter
Find the perimeter of pentagon ABCDE that has the following vertices: A: (0, 4) B: (4,0) C: (3, -4) D: (-3, -4) E: (-3, 1)
The width of a rectangle is 5 less than twice its length The width of a rectangle is 5 less than twice its length. The perimeter is 80cm. Find the dimensions.
