Definitions: Polygon—a plane figure that meets the following conditions: It is formed by 3 or more segments called sides, such that no two sides with a common endpoint are collinear. Each side intersects exactly two other sides, one at each endpoint. Vertex – each endpoint of a side. Plural is vertices. You can name a polygon by listing its vertices consecutively. For instance, PQRST and QPTSR are two correct names for the polygon above. SIDE
5
Example 1: Identifying Polygons State whether the figure is a polygon. If it is not, explain why. Not D – has a side that isn’t a segment – it’s an arc. Not E– because two of the sides intersect only one other side. Not F because some of its sides intersect more than two sides/ Figures A, B, and C are polygons.

Polygons are named by the number of sides they have – MEMORIZE Number of sidesType of Polygon 3Triangle 4Quadrilateral 5Pentagon 6Hexagon 7Heptagon 8Octagon 9Nonagon 10Decagon 12Dodecagon nn-gon
7
Convex or Concave??? 7 A convex polygon has no diagonal with points outside the polygon. A concave polygon has at least one diagonal with points outside the polygon

8 Measures of Interior and Exterior Angles You have already learned the name of a polygon depends on the number of sides in the polygon: triangle, quadrilateral, pentagon, hexagon, and so forth. The sum of the measures of the interior angles of a polygon also depends on the number of sides.

9 Measures of Interior and Exterior Angles For instance... Complete this table Polygon# of sides # of triangles Sum of measures of interior ’s Triangle 31 1●180=180 Quadrilateral 2●180=360 Pentagon Hexagon Nonagon (9) n-gon n

Pre-AP Bellwork 10 - 24 6) Find the sum of the interior angles of a dodecagon. 10
11
11 Measures of Interior and Exterior Angles What is the pattern? (n – 2) ● 180. This relationship can be used to find the measure of each interior angle in a regular n-gon because the angles are all congruent.
12
12 Ex. 1: Finding measures of Interior Angles of Polygons Find the value of x in the diagram shown: 88 136 142 105 xx
13
13 SOLUTION: S(hexagon)= (6 – 2) ● 180 = 4 ● 180 = 720. Add the measure of each of the interior angles of the hexagon. 88 136 142 105 xx
14
14 SOLUTION: 136 + 136 + 88 + 142 + 105 +x = 720. 607 + x = 720 X = 113 The measure of the sixth interior angle of the hexagon is 113.
15
15 Polygon Interior Angles Theorem The sum of the measures of the interior angles of a convex n-gon is (n – 2) ● 180 COROLLARY: The measure of each interior angle of a regular n-gon is: ● (n-2) ● 180 or
16
EX.2 Find the measure of an interior angle of a decagon…. n=10 16
17
17 Ex. 2: Finding the Number of Sides of a Polygon The measure of each interior angle is 140. How many sides does the polygon have? USE THE COROLLARY
18
18 Solution: = 140 (n – 2) ●180= 140n 180n – 360 = 140n 40n = 360 n = 90 Corollary to Thm. 11.1 Multiply each side by n. Distributive Property Addition/subtraction props. Divide each side by 40.
