    Polygon
    What is a 2D shape?

    A two-dimensional shape can be defined as a flat plane figure or a shape


    that has two dimensions – length and width
    Polygons
    Polygons are 2-dimensional shapes.
    They are made of straight lines, and the shape is "closed" (all
    the lines connect up).

    What is a diagonal?

    A diagonal is a straight line connecting the opposite corners


    of a polygon through its vertex.
    Derivation
    Pentagon
    Number of sides in a pentagon = 5
    Number of diagonals in a polygon = n(n-3)/2
    = 5(5-3)/2
    = 5(2)/2
    =5

    A pentagon will have 5 diagonals


    Try yourself
    1) Derive the number of diagonals for a Hexagon

    We know that

    Number of sides in a Hexagon = 6


    Sum of all interior angles in a polygon
    Sum of all interior angles of a polygon
    Sum of all interior angles in a polygon = (n-2) x 180
    Hexagon (Number of sides = 6)
    Sum of all interior angles in a Hexagon = ( 6 - 2 ) x 180
    = 4 x 180
    = 720
    Can you try yourself ???
    Find the sum of all interior angles of a pentagon
    Find the measure of the missing angle in the polygon
    below
    Try to find the missing angle in the polygon below
    Exterior angle sum property
    When the sides of the polygon are extended to get angles that lie outside the
    polygon, the angles are called the Exterior angles of the polygon
    Exterior angle sum
    Cut out all the exterior angles of a polygon and join all the angles at the vertices.

    Examine the angle formed y joining all the exterior angles.

    The angle formed is a complete angle hence we can prove

    Sum of all exterior angles in a polygon is 360 degree.


    What is the measure of the exterior angle a in the given
    polygon where the measures of the other angles are
    given?
    Sum of the given angles = 48+99+37+49+41

    = 274

    Sum of exterior angles = 360

    274 + a = 360

    a=360-274 =86
    Find the missing angle of a polygon whose exterior angles
    are as follows
    Note
    An interior angle and its corresponding exterior angle together forms a straight line
    and measure 180 degree
    Trapezium
    1. It is a Quadrilateral
    2. One pair of opposite sides are parallel
    3. All angles will be of different measures
    Isosceles Trapezium
    Length of two non-parallel sides are equal (AD=BC)

    Angles on the same sides of parallel sides are also equal in measure <D=<C

    Diagonals in an isosceles trapezium are equal in length(AC=BD)


    Find the length of the missing sides in the Iso.Trap below
    Perimeter of the Trap=40cm
    Sol

    AD=BC(Non Parallel sides) ; AB=5cm and DC=20cm; Let AD=BC=x

    AB+BC+CD+DA=40cm

    5+x+20+x=40

    25+2x=40

    2x=40-25

    2x=15

    x=15/2

    x=7.5cm
    Adjacent sides in this diagram

    AB=AD

    BC=DC

    AC is Perpendicular to BD
    Perimeter of the Kite is 40cm.What are the length of the
    other 3 sides if the length of its side is 15cm?
    AB=AD (Adjacent sides) ; AD=15cm

    CD=CB(Adjacent sides) Let CD=CB=x

    AB+BC+CD+DA=40

    15+X +X+15 =40

    30 +2X =40

    2X =40-30

    2X =10

    X =10/2

    X =5cm
