1. Polygon Types and Terminology

Key Concepts & Definitions

  • Polygon : A simple closed plane figure formed by three or more line segments joined end to end, with no two successive segments collinear.

★ Must-know

  • The sides of a polygon are its forming line segments, vertices are the common endpoints of two sides, and interior angles are the angles formed inside the polygon.

Further detail

  • A polygon with n sides is commonly named an n-gon; the course lists triangle, quadrilateral, pentagon, hexagon, heptagon, octagon, nonagon, and decagon for 3 through 10 sides.

2. Convexity and Concavity

Key Concepts & Definitions

  • Convex Polygon : Has every interior angle less than 180°, and its vertices point outward.
  • Concave Polygon : Has at least one interior angle greater than 180°, with vertices that can point inward and outward.
