PolygonsPolygons
A closed figure formed by a finite number of coplanar segments such that:
1.The sides that have a common endpoint are noncollinear, and
2.Each side intersects exactly two other sides, but only at their endpoints
A polygon is named by the letters of its vertices, written in consecutive order.
Polygon ABC or CBA
Polygon WXYZ or YZWX, etc.
Polygon EFGHJK or HGFEKJ, etc.

Concave or ConvexConcave or Convex
There are two types of polygons:
Concave: Any side which is extended contains points in the interior of the polygon.
Convex: Any side which is extended contains no point in the interior of the polygon.
At least one side is “caved” in.

Special NamesSpecial NamesPolygons can be classified by the number
of sides they have:

PerimeterPerimeter
The sum of the lengths of the sides of a polygon.
Some polygons have “shortcut” formulas:

First, use the distance formula to calculate the side lengths, then find the perimeter. 2
