Polygons • A Polygon is a closed figure made up of straight sides. They are given special names when we know the number of sides.
Polygons • A regular polygon is one that has all its sides and angles the same. An irregular polygon does not. • Examples of regular polygons
Types of Quadrilaterals • There are several quadrilaterals including Square, Rectangle, Parallelogram, Rhombus. • Quadrilaterals are a type of polygon with four sides, and four angles adding up to 360°. A pushed over square A pushed over rectangle
Exterior Angles of Polygons • This is easy, they add up to 360°. Think of the opening of a camera. As it gets smaller and smaller it comes to a point. (360º)
Interior Angles of Polygons • The formula for calculating the sum of the interior angles of a regular polygon is: • (n - 2) × 180° where n is the number of sides of the polygon.
Interior angle of a regular polygon Example: • Find the interior angle of a regular hexagon. • You know that the interior angles of a hexagon add up to 720° As a hexagon has six sides, each angle is equal to = 120°.
N 0700 Bearings • Bearings are special angles that give directions. They are measured clockwise from North, and are always written using three digits. • EG:

Exercise • Properties of a circle: • Exercise 10.2 All • Exercise 10.3 All • Exercise 10.4 All • Remember to give the right reason for your answer! • i.e x = 250: The angle at the centre is twice the angle at the circumference
Rotational Symmetry • A figure has rotational symmetry about a point if it can rotate onto itself in less then 3600. • If a shape only rotates onto itself once then it is said to not have rotational symmetry • Order of Rotational Symmetry • The order of rotational symmetry is how often a shape will rotate onto itself • Every shape will have a rotational symmetry of at least 1
Line Symmetry • A shape has line symmetry if it reflects or folds onto itself. The line or fold is called an axis of symmetry • Use a ruler to help you work out how many axis of symmetry a shape has
Total Order of Symmetry • The Total Order of Symmetry of a shape is: • The number of Axis of Symmetry plus • The Order of Rotational Symmetry
