Polygons Brought to you by Cavis for President

What is a Polygon???? Any ideas? Write down what you think it is for #1.

A polygon is a closed plane figure with 3 or more sides (all straight lines, no curves).

Classifying Polygons by # of Sides 3 sided Polygon =Triangle Hint: Think “Tri”cycle, “tri”pod, “Tri”lateration (Tri means 3)

Classifying Polygons by # of Sides 4 sided Polygon =Quadrilateral Hint: Think “Quad”rant, “Quad”ruple, “Quad” (AKA 4-Wheeler)

Classifying Polygons by # of Sides 5 sided Polygon =Pentagon Hint: Think “Pent”athalon, or the government building “The Pentagon”

Classifying Polygons by # of Sides 6 sided Polygon =Hexagon Hint: Both “Hexagon” and “Six” have an ‘x’ in them

Classifying Polygons by # of Sides 7 sided Polygon =Heptagon Hint: ???

Classifying Polygons by # of Sides 8 sided Polygon =Octagon Hint: “oct”opus – 8 legs

Classifying Polygons by # of Sides 9 sided Polygon =Nonagon Hint: “Non” is similar to “Nine”

Classifying Polygons by # of Sides 10 sided Polygon =Decagon Hint: Think “Dec”ade (10 years

Classifying Polygons by # of Sides 11 sided Polygon =Hendecagon Hint: ???

Classifying Polygons by # of Sides 12 sided Polygon =Dodecagon Hint: ???

Classifying Polygons by # of Sides Q: What do we call a polygon with more than 12 sides? A: An ‘n’-gon where ‘n’ is the number of sides Ex: a 20 sided polygon is a 20-gon

6.2 Properties of Parallelograms A parallelogram is a quadrilateral with both pairs of opposite sides parallel. In a quadrilateral, opposite sides do not share a vertex and opposite angles do not share a side.

Theorem 6.3 If a quadrilateral is a parallelogram, then its opposite sides are congruent.

Consecutive Angles Angles of a polygon that share a side are consecutive angles.

Theorem 6.4 If a quadrilateral is a parallelogram, then its consecutive angles are supplementary.

Using Consecutive Angles What is the measure of angle P in parallelogram PQRS? A.26° B.64° C.116° D.126°

Theorem 6.5 If a quadrilateral is a parallelogram, then its opposite angles are congruent.

Theorem 6.6 If a quadrilateral is a parallelogram, then its diagonals bisect each other.

Theorem 6.7 If three (or more) parallel lines cut off congruent segments on one transversal, then they cut off congruent segments on every transversal.

Two Types of Polygons Convex – all vertices point outward Concave – at least one vertex points inward towards the center of the polygon (The side looks like it “caved” in)

Regular Polygons A Regular Polygon is a polygon in which all sides are the same length. Equilateral Triangle   Square

Review of Similar Triangles 2 Triangles are similar if they have the same shape (i.e. the same angle in the same positions)

Similar Polygons The same is true of polygons. 2 polygons are similar if they have the same angles in the same positions (i.e. same shape) ^ Similar Pentagons ^ Similar Trapezoids  Similar Rectangles 

Essential Question What are properties of sides and angles of rhombuses, rectangles, and squares?

Properties of Special Parallelograms In this lesson, you will study three special types of parallelograms: rhombuses, rectangles and squares. A rhombus is a parallelogram with four congruent sides A rectangle is a parallelogram with four right angles. A square is a parallelogram with four congruent sides and four right angles.

Venn Diagram shows relationships-- MEMORIZE Each shape has the properties of every group that it belongs to. For instance, a square is a rectangle, a rhombus and a parallelogram; so it has all of the properties of those shapes. RhombusesRectangles parallelograms rhombusesrectangles squares

Ex. 1: Describing a special parallelogram  Decide whether the statement is always, sometimes, or never true. b.A parallelogram is a rectangle. c. The statement is sometimes true. Some parallelograms are rectangles. In the Venn diagram, you can see that some of the shapes in the parallelogram box are in the area for rectangles, but many aren’t.
