Learning Targets Students should be able to…3 Classify polygons based on their sides and angles. Find and use the measures of interior and exterior angles of polygons.
Warm-up 1. What is the sum of the measures of the interior angles of a triangle? 2. Two angles in a triangle measure 34° and 53°. The third angle measures x°. What is x? 3. In which kind of triangle are all three sides congruent? 4. In which kind of triangle are all three angles

Review of Vocabulary 2. 1. 3.
Define: Polygon A polygon is a plane figure that meets the following conditions: It is formed by three or more segments called sides. Each side intersects exactly two other sides, at each endpoint
Vertex Each endpoint of a side is a vertex of the polygon. The plural of vertex is vertices. You can name a polygon by listing its vertices consecutively.

Regular and Irregular Polygon a polygon that is both equilateral and equiangular Irregular Polygon: a polygon that is not regular
Examples
Concave verse Convex Convex: No diagonal contains points outside of the polygon. *All diagonals inside the polygon Concave: if any part of a diagonal contains points in the exterior of the polygon. *At least one diagonal outside the polygon
