Classifying
Polygons
A
polygon
is
a
closed
figure
formed
by
three
or
more
line
segments.
A
regular
polygon
has
all
sides
equal
and
all
angles
equal.
Some
quadrilaterals
have
special
names.
A
regular
quadrilateral
is
a
square.
An
irregular
quadrilateral
may
be
a
rectangle,
rhombus,
parallelogram,
or
trapezoid
Example
3: Classify
each
polygon
according
to
its
number
of
sides
and
whether
it
is
regular
or
irregular.

Angle
Properties
Opposite
Angles:
-‐
When
2
angles
intersect,
the
opposite
angles
are
equal.
Supplementary
Angles:
-‐
angles
that
add
to
180
degrees
-‐
angles
on
a
straight
line
are
supplementary
Complementary
Angles:
-‐
angles
that
add
to
90
degrees

Triangle
Theorems
The
sum
of
the
interior
angles
of
a
triangle
is
180
degrees.
The
exterior
angle
is
equal
to
the
sum
of
the
2
opposite
interior
angles.
