A polygon is a closed lane figure with at least three sides that are segments. The sides intersect only at their endpoints, and no adjacent sides are collinear. A D C B A B C D E A B C E D E POLYGON NOT A POLYGON NOT A CLOSED FIGURE SIDES INTERSECT
3
Polygons have vertices, sides, and angles Vertices: a point where two segments meet Each vertex is also an angle Sides are in between two vertices. To name a polygon, start at any vertex and list the vertices consecutively in a clockwise or counter clockwise direction.
4
Name the polygon, then identify its vertices, sides, and angles. Vertices: Sides: Angles: B G M K HD
5
You can classify polygons by the number of sides it has.
6
Polygons can also be classified as convex or concave. A R TY D All the vertices of the polygon will point outward, away from the inside of the polygon W K S Q G PM CONVEX CONCAVE A vertex that is pushed in towards the inside of the polygon. The polygon “caves” in.
7
Classify each polygon by the number of sides and identify if it is concave or convex.

3-10 Polygon Exterior Angle-Sum Theorem › The sum of the measures of the exterior angles of a polygon, one at each vertex, is 360° › For the pentagon 1 5 4 3 2 m ∠ 1 + m ∠ 2 + m ∠ 3 +m ∠ 4 + m ∠ 5 = 360°
13
An equilateral polygon has all sides congruent. An equiangular polygon has all angles congruent. A regular polygon is both equilateral and equiangular.
14
Find the measure of each given the figure is a regular polygon. a. Sum of the interior angles b. The measure of 1 interior angle c. The sum of the exterior angles d. The measure of 1 exterior angle
15
The sum of the measure of the angles of a polygon is 4,500. Find how many sides the figure has.
16
The measure of an exterior angle of a regular polygon is 40°. Find the measure of an interior angle, and the number of sides.
