What is polygon?

Formed by three or more segments (sides).

Each side intersects exactly two other sides, one at each endpoint.

Has vertex/vertices.

Polygons are named by the number of sides they have. Fill in the blank.

Concave vs. Convex

Convex: if no line that contains a side of the polygon contains a point in the interior of the polygon.

Concave: if a polygon is not convex.

Example

Identify the polygon and state whether it is convex or concave.

Concave polygon Convex polygon

A polygon is equilateral if all of its sides are congruent.

A polygon is equiangular if all of its interior angles are congruent.

A polygon is regular if it is equilateral and equiangular.
