Polygon Classification Classification CONVEX CONCAVE EQUILATERAL EQUIANGULAR REGULAR BY SIDES QUIZ
Classification of Polygons By Sides • Polygons are named by the number of sides it has. • 3 sides = triangle • 4 sides = quadrilateral • 5 sides = pentagon • 6 sides = hexagon • 7 sides = septagon • 8 sides = octagon • 9 sides = nonagon • 10 sides = decagon • 12 sides = dodecagon Examples
Examples # of sides = 3 Triangle # of sides = 6 Hexagon # of sides = 5 Pentagon # of sides = 10 Decagon Go to Convex/Concave
Convex and Concave A polygon is convex if no diagonals from any two vertices go outside the polygon. Convex A polygon is concave is any diagonal goes outside of the polygon. **An easy way to remember is concave looks like a cave. Concave Go to Equilateral/Equiangular/Regular
Equilateral/Equiangular/Regular Equilateral – all sides are the same length. Equiangular – all angles have the same measure. Regular – both equilateral and equiangular. Examples
Examples Equilateral – all sides are the same length. Equiangular – all angles are the same measure. Regular – all sides are the same length and all angles are the same measure.
