Section 3-5 Angles of Polygons
Objective: Recognize and name the convex polygons and regular polygons. Find the measures of the interior angles and exterior angles of convex polygons. Standard 2.9 Concepts in Geometry
2
The left five figures are polygons. The right figures are not
The left five figures are polygons. The right figures are not. Using this knowledge, write the definitions or qualities a polygon can/cannot have.
3
Polygons Made up of segments (thus no curves)
Must have three or more sides Can be non-convex but we focus on convex. Ex. Non-Convex where there is at least one line that is interior
4
Convex vs. Non-Convex
5
Naming Polygons Number of Sides Name 3 Triangle 4 Quadrilateral 5
6 8 10 n Name Triangle Quadrilateral Pentagon Hexagon Octagon Decagon n-gon
6
How many different triangles can be forms by drawing diagonals through the following polygons Definition of diagonal: interior segment from one vertex to another. 4 sides & 2 triangles 6 sides & 4 triangles 3 sides & 1 triangles 8 sides & 6 triangles
7
Investigation-Fill in the chart and make a conjecture: #of sides #of angle sum n
8
Theorem 3-13 The sum of the measures of the angles of a convex polygon with n sides is (n-2) 180
Interior Angle Thm
9
Exterior Angle Sum Theorem
Theorem 3-14 The sum of the measures of the exterior angles of any convex polygon, one angle at each, is 360 Exterior Angle Sum Theorem
10
Ex. If a polygon has 22 sides. Find the interior and exterior angle sum.
Interior sum (n-2) 180 (22-2) 180 (20) 180 3600 Exterior sum 360
11
Regular Polygons Regular polygons are equiangular and equilateral.
Thus all their interior angles are ______ and all their sides are _______.
12
Example 1 All regular 7 sided figures have interior angle measures of ____ and exterior angle measures of _____. Answers: int = ext = 51.5
13
Example 2 All regular 6 sided figures have interior angle measures of ____ and exterior angle measures of _____. Answers: int = 120° and ext = 60°.
