TODAY IN GEOMETRY… Learning Goal: 1.6 Classify Polygons Independent Practice – NO A.T.
POLYGON: a closed plane figure formed by three or more line segments. sides Polygons are named by listing vertices in consecutive order: ABCDE BCDEA CDEAB DEABC EABCD A B E C vertex D
CONVEX POLYGON: polygon with all interior angles less than 180°. No lines that contain the sides goes through the interior of the polygon.
CONCAVE POLYGON: polygon with one or more interior angles greater than 180°. One or more lines that contain the sides, goes through the interior of the polygon. interior
1. 2. Not a polygon Convex polygon 3. 4. Concave polygon Not a polygon PRACTICE: Tell whether the figure is a polygon and whether it is concave and convex. 1. 2. Not a polygon Convex polygon 3. 4. Concave polygon Not a polygon
NAMING POLYGONS: polygons are named by the number of sides they have. Type of Polygon 3 Triangle 8 Octagon 4 Quadrilateral 9 Nonagon 5 Pentagon 10 Decagon 6 Hexagon 12 Dodecagon 7 Heptagon n n-gon **Name any polygon larger than 12 sides with n-gon. Example: 14 sided polygon is a 14-gon
EQUILATERAL POLYGON: polygon with all congruent sides. Equilateral hexagon
EQUIANGULAR POLYGON: polygon with all congruent interior angles. Equiangular hexagon
EQUIANGULAR POLYGON: a convex polygon that is both equilateral and equiangular. Regular Pentagon
1. 2. Regular hexagon Equilateral Equiangular Quadrilateral PRACTICE: Classify the polygons by the number of sides. Tell whether the polygon is equilateral, equiangular, or regular. 1. 2. Regular hexagon Equilateral Equiangular Quadrilateral Not equilateral Not equiangular
PRACTICE: Find the length of one side of the regular hexagon. Sides of a regular hexagon are congruent: 3𝑥+6=4𝑥−2 − 3𝑥 − 3𝑥 6=𝑥−2 + 2 + 2 𝟖=𝒙 Substitute x to find one length: 3𝑥+6 =3 8 +6 =𝟑𝟎 3𝑥+6 4𝑥−2
