2. polygon – a closed plane figure with at least three sides that are segments. The sides intersect only at their endpoints and no two adjacent sides are collinear.

3. Perimeter of a polygon – sum of the lengths of its sides. Area of a polygon – the number of square units the polygon encloses. Circumference– the perimeter of a circle.

4. Formulas Perimeter of a square P = 4s Perimeter of a rectangle P = 2b + 2h Circumference of a circle C =  d or C = 2  r

5. Formulas Area of a square A = s 2 Area of a rectangle A = b  h Area of a circle A =  r 2

6. Postulates If two figures are congruent, then their areas are equal. The area of a region is the sum of the areas of its nonoverlapping parts.
