3.7 Properties of Polygons I can identify different types of polygons. I can tell the properties of each type of polygon. I can categorize quadrilaterals based on their properties.
Polygon Review • SRB 142
Notes and Definitions • Polygon – a 2 dimensional, closed figure made up of line segments (no curves). • The line segments of a polygon may NOT cross. What do you notice about the number of sides and the number of vertices?
Naming Polygons • Polygons are named for the number of sides they have.
Polygon Sort Put the polygons into 2 or 3 groups according to any rule you choose. Now try these: >At least 2 sides are parallel (pic) >Convex and nonconvex (pic) > At least on angle is greater than 90° (pic)
