Polygons can look quite different, but have the same name. For example, look at these two shapes and count the sides on each. Can you see both shapes have 6 sides, so both shapes are hexagons.
We’re at the Polygons annual party. It’s polygons only so to get a ticket, you have to be a 2D shape, with straight sides. Polygons can be grouped based the number of sides they have.
Polygons can be regular or irregular in shape. A polygon is a closed 2D shape with at least three sides. A regular polygon is a polygon with all equal sides and angles. An irregular polygon is a ...
Each interior angle is calculated by dividing the sum of the interior angles by the number of sides. Interior angle in a regular polygon = \(\mathbf{\frac{180(n-2)}{n}}\) If the side of a polygon ...
The formula for calculating the size of an interior angle is: \(\text{interior angle of a polygon} = \text{sum of interior angles} \div \text{number of sides}\) The sum of interior angles is \((6 ...
They have two dimensions – length and width. A polygon is a closed 2D shape with straight sides that meet at vertices. Polygons can be regular or irregular. If all the straight sides of a shape ...
