5.4 Four Sided Polygons Objective: After studying this section, you will be able to: a. Recognize polygons, b. Understand how polygons are named, c. Recognize convex polygons, d. Recognize diagonals of polygons, and e. Identify special types of quadrilaterals.
2
Polygons are plane figures.
3
Non-polygons a b c e d
4
So, polygons must have: Segments Consecutive sides intersect only at endpoints Nonconsecutive sides should not intersect Each vertex must belong to only two sides Segments must meet at a vertex Consecutive sides must be noncollinear
5
A To name a polygon begin at any vertex and proceed either clockwise or counterclockwise around the figure. B C D E F
6
Definition:A convex polygon is a polygon in which each interior angle has a measure less than 180. Convex Not convex (concave)
7
Definition:A diagonal of a polygon is any segment that connects two nonconsecutive (nonadjacent) vertices of the polygon.
8
What is a quadrilateral? It is a four-sided polygon.

Special Quadrilaterals Trapezoid A quadrilateral with exactly 1 pair of parallel sides (bases). Isosceles A trapezoid in which the non- Trapezoid parallel sides (legs) are congruent. (lower and upper base angles) Kite A quad with 2 disjoint pairs of consecutive congruent sides. What is a … Sketch
10
Parallelogram A quad with 2 sets of parallel sides. Rhombus A parallelogram in which at least two consecutive sides are congruent. What is a Sketch
11
Rectangle A parallelogram with at least one right angle. Square A parallelogram that is both a rectangle and a rhombus. What is a Sketch
