2 Definitions A polygon is a plane figure that is formed by three or more segments called sides. (a closed, sided figure) Each side intersects exactly two other sides at each of its endpoints. Each endpoint is a vertex of the polygon. Two vertices that are endpoints of the same side are consecutive vertices. A segment that joins two nonconsecutive vertices of a polygon is called a diagonal. Vertices side diagonal Consecutive vertices

3 Is the figure a polygon? Why or why not? Yes, the figure is closed and formed by straight sides

4 Is the figure a polygon? Why or why not? No, one of the “sides” is not a segment – it is a curve

5 Is the figure a polygon? Why or why not? No, two of the sides only intersect one other side – it is not a closed figure

6 Is the figure a polygon? Why or why not? Yes, the figure is closed and formed by straight sides

18 Quadrilaterals Quadrilaterals are made of two triangles. The sum of the angles in a triangle is 180 o. 2 * 180 = 360 total 180 o

19 Quadrilateral Interior Angles Theorem The sum of the interior angles of a quadrilateral is 360 o. m<1 + m<2 + m<3 + m<4 = 360 o 4 1 3 2
