1 Chapter 6-1 Introduction to Polygons

2 A polygon is a plane figure formed by _______ __________. Each segment is a _______ of the polygon. The common endpoint of two sides is the ____________ of the polygon. Polygons must be ______________ Polygons cannot have sides that _________ or ____________

5 RELATIONSHIPS AMONG SIDES AND ANGLES

6 Diagonals of Polygons A diagonal of a polygon is a segment whose endpoints are nonconsecutive vertices. The number, d(n), of diagonals in a polygon with n sides is given by: Open your composition notebook (we will draw shapes):

7 Look for the patterns Sides4 Triangles2 Measure of 1 interior angle Sides5 Triangles 3 Measure of 1 interior angle Sides6 Triangles 4 Measure of 1 interior angle

8 # of Sides Name # of diagonals # of triangles Sum of interior angles Sum of Exterior angles 1 interior angle measure 1 exterior angle measure

9 coco coco 3c o Find the value of c, then the measure of each interior angle.

10 Find the value of w, then the measure of each interior angle. w+22 w w
