A polygon is plane figure (twodimensional) that meets the
following conditions.
It is formed by three or more segments called sides.
The sides must be straight lines.
Each side intersects exactly two other sides, one at each
endpoint.
The polygon is closed in all the way around with no
gaps.
Each side must end when the next side begins. No tails.

Concave v Convex
•
•
A polygon is convex if
no line that contains a
side of the polygon
contains a point in the
interior of the
polygon.
Take any two points
in the interior of the
polygon. If you can
draw a line between
the two points that
never leave the
interior of the
polygon, then it is
convex.

•
•
A polygon is concave if
a line that contains a
side of the polygon
contains a point in the
interior of the
polygon.
Take any two points in
the interior of the
polygon. If you can
draw a line between
the two points that
does leave the interior
of the polygon, then it
is concave.
Concave polygons
have dents in the
sides, or you could say
it caves in.

If it is a polygon, classify it as concave or convex and
name it based on the number of sides.

Diagonals of a Polygon
• A diagonal of a polygon is a
segment that joins two
nonconsecutive vertices.
– A diagonal does not go to the
point next to it.
• That would make it a side!
– Diagonals cut across the
polygon to all points on the
other side.
• There is typically more than one
diagonal.
Interior Angles of a Polygon
• The sum of the interior angles of a triangle is
– 180o
• The sum of the interior angles of a
quadrilateral is
180o
– 360o
• The sum of the interior angles of a pentagon is
– ???
360o
• The sum of the interior angles of a hexagon is
– ???
• By splitting the interior into triangles, it should
be able to tell you the sum of the interior
angles.
– Pick one vertex and draw all possible diagonals
from that vertex.
– Then, count up the number of triangles and
multiply by 180o.
540o
720o
Theorem 11.1:
Polygon Interior Angles Theorem
• The sum of the measure of the
interior angles of a convex
n-gon is

n = number of sides

pointing clockwise or counterclockwise.

Lesson 7.2
Each Interior & Exterior
Angle of a
Regular Polygon
Lesson 7.2 Objectives
• Calculate the measure of each interior
angle of a regular polygon. (G1.5.2)
• Calculate the measure of each interior
angle of a regular polygon. (G1.5.2)
• Determine the number of sides of a
regular polygon based on the measure of
one interior angle.
• Determine the number of sides of a
regular polygon based on the measure of
one exterior angle.
Regular Polygons
• 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 both equilateral
and equiangular.
Remember: EVERY side must be marked with the same
congruence marks and EVERY angle must be marked with the
same congruence arcs.
Example 7.6
Classify the following polygons as equilateral,
equiangular, regular, or neither.

Corollary to Theorem 11.1
• The measure of each interior
angle of a regular n-gon is
found using the following:
Sum of the
Interior Angles
180o (n  2)
n
Divided equally
into n angles.
It basically says to take the sum of the
interior angles and divide by the number of
sides to figure out how big each angle is.
Example 7.7
Find the measure of each interior angle in the
regular polygons.
1. pentagon
2.
decagon
3.
17-gon
Finding the Number of Sides
• By knowing the measurement of one interior
angle of a regular polygon, we can determine
the number of sides of the polygon as well.
• How?
– Since we know that all angles are going to have
the same measure we will multiply the known
angle by the number of sides of the
polygon.
– That will tell us how many sides it would take to
be set equal to the sum of all the interior
angles of the polygon.
• However, since we do not know the number of
sides of the polygon, nor do we know the total
sum of the interior angles of that polygon we
are left with the following formula to work
with:
( Angle Measure) ( Number of Sides)  ( Sum of the Interior Angles)
( Angle Measure) (n)  180o (n  2)
Example 7.8
Determine the number of sides of the regular
polygon given one interior angle.

140o

147.27o

•
This can also be
worked in “reverse” to
determine the number
of sides of a regular
polygon given the
measure of an exterior
angle.
How?
hepatagon?
•
•
•
•
– Figure out how many
times that angle
measure would go
into 360o.
3600
Then how would we find
the measure of an
exterior angle if it were a
regular polygon?
–
• Say each exterior
angle is 1200. How
many exterior
angles would it
take to get to the
total for the
exterior angles?
Divide 360o by the
number of exterior
angles formed.
•
Which happens to be
the same as the
number of sides (n).

Lesson 7.3
Day 1:
Area and Perimeter of
Regular Polygons
Lesson 7.3 Objectives
• Calculate the measure of the
central angle of a regular polygon.
• Identify an apothem
• Calculate the perimeter and area
of a regular polygon. (G1.5.1)
• Utilize trigonometry to find
missing measurements in a
regular polygon.
Theorem 11.3:
Area of an Equilateral Triangle
• Area of an equilateral
triangle is
– A = ¼ (√3) s2
• Take ¼ times the length of a
side squared and write in
front of √3.
– Be sure to simplify if possible.
s
Parts of a Polygon
• The center of a polygon is the center
of the polygon’s circumscribed circle.
– A circumscribed circle is one in that is
drawn to go through all the vertices of a
polygon.
• The radius of a polygon is the radius
of its circumscribed circle.
– Will go from the center to a vertex.
r
Central Angle of a Polygon
• The central angle of a polygon
is the angle formed by drawing
lines from the center to two
consecutive vertices.
• This is found by
–
360/
n
• That is because the total degrees
traveled around the center would be
like a circle.
• Then divide that by the number of sides
because that determines how many
central angles could be formed.
600
Apothem
• The apothem is the distance
from the center to any side of the
polygon.
– Not to the vertex, but to the center
of the side.
– The height of a triangle formed
between the center and two
consecutive vertices of the polygon.
a
Theorem 11.4:
Area of a Regular Polygon
• The area of a regular n-gon with
side length s is half the product
of the apothem and the
perimeter.
• A = 1/2aP
– A stands for area
– a stands for apothem
– P stands for perimeter of the n-gon
• Found by finding the side length and
multiplying by the number of sides
– A = 1/2a(ns)
• n stands for the number of sides
• s stands for the length of one side
