Vocabulary A closed plane figure with the following properties: 1. formed by 3 or more line segments called sides 2. each side intersects exactly two sides one at each endpoint, so that no two sides with a common endpoint are collinear. • Polygon: • Diagonal: • Regular Polygon: A segment that joins two nonconsecutive sides A polygon that has all sides, and all angles congruent
