Name: Date: WORKSHEET : Polygons A polygon is a closed, planar shape connected by straight lines. Polygons can be categorized as regular or irregular. Polygons can be categorized as convex or concave. Polygons can be categorized as simple or complex. WORKSHEET : Polygons Interior/Exterior Angles ANSWERS : Polygons Interior/Exterior Angles KEY CONCEPTS: Definition of polygons and interior/exterior angle measures. 1. A polygon is a closed, planar shape connected by straight lines. a. Not closed ≠ polygon b. Not all straight lines ≠ polygon c. Planar means it is 2 dimensional; on an x-y coordinate plane for example d. Definitions of terms i. Vertex = The point where two lines meet on the polygon ii. Interior Angle = The angle inside the polygon between adjacent sides iii. Exterior Angle = If a line is extended from one side of the polygon past the vertex then the exterior angle is the angle between that line and the next adjacent side. 2. Names of polygons depend on the number of sides or interior angles (the same value). The smallest number of sides for a two dimensional polygon is 3. As n approaches infinity the polygon approaches a circle, but a circle is not a polygon due to its curves. Number of Sides, (n) Polygon Name 3 Triangle 4 Quadrilateral 5 Pentagon 6 Hexagon 7 Septagon(or Heptagon) 8 Octagon 10 Decagon 12 Dodecagon 15 Pentadecagon 100 Hecatgon 1,000 Chiliagon 1,000,000 Megagon 10100 Googolgon 3. The sum of interior angles of any n-sided polygon is... Sum Interior Angles = 180(n - 2) expressed in degrees e.g. Sum of Interior angles of a triangle (n=3) = 180(3 - 2) = 180 Sum of Interior angles of a quadrilateral (n=4) = 180(4 - 2) = 360 Sum of Interior angles of a pentagon (n=5) = 180(5 - 2) = 540 4. The sum of exterior angles always equals 360. The exterior angle sum does not change with the number of sides of the polygon. 5. The interior angle at any one vertex for a regular polygon is the same as the average interior angle of the polygon. e.g. The measure of any one interior angle of a "regular" pentagon is... Average = Sum/Count = 540/5 = 108 6. Interior Angle + Exterior Angles = 180 at any vertex. What are the implications of this at a concave vertex? .

Volume 2 Shape and Space
Volume 2 Shape and Space Colin Foster Introduction Teachers are busy people, so I’ll be brief. Let me tell you what this book isn’t. • It isn’t a book you have to make time to read; it’s a book that will save you time. Take it into the classroom and use ideas from it straight away. Anything requiring preparation or equipment (e.g., photocopies, scissors, an overhead projector, etc.) begins with the word “NEED” in bold followed by the details. • It isn’t a scheme of work, and it isn’t even arranged by age or pupil “level”. Many of the ideas can be used equally well with pupils at different ages and stages. Instead the items are simply arranged by topic. (There is, however, an index at the back linking the “key objectives” from the Key Stage 3 Framework to the sections in these three volumes.) The three volumes cover Number and Algebra (1), Shape and Space (2) and Probability, Statistics, Numeracy and ICT (3). • It isn’t a book of exercises or worksheets. Although you’re welcome to photocopy anything you wish, photocopying is expensive and very little here needs to be photocopied for pupils. Most of the material is intended to be presented by the teacher orally or on the board. Answers and comments are given on the right side of most of the pages or sometimes on separate pages as explained. This is a book to make notes in. Cross out anything you don’t like or would never use. Add in your own ideas or references to other resources.

Twelve inches may be regarded as a maximum. Our Women are Straight Lines. Our Soldiers and Lowest Class of Workmen are Triangles with two equal sides, each about eleven inches long, and a base or third side so short (often not exceeding half an inch) that they form at their vertices a very sharp and formidable angle. Indeed when their bases are of the most degraded type (not more than the eighth part of an inch in size), they can hardly be distinguished from Straight lines or Women; so extremely pointed are their vertices.

TOPIC 11 Triangles and Polygons
TOPIC 11 Triangles and polygons We can proceed directly from the results we learned about parallel lines and their associated angles to the ideas concerning triangles. An essential question is a question whose answer is not obvious, but it is a vitally important question that we continue to ponder. Essential question: Why are triangles so important in the study of geometry? We will spend more time studying triangles than any other single topic. Why? Let’s review the definitions: 1. What is a triangle? 2. What is an isosceles triangle? 3. What is an equilateral triangle? 4. What is a scalene triangle? 5. What is a scalene triangle? 6. What is an acute triangle? 7. What is an obtuse triangle? 8. What is a right triangle? Topic 11 (Triangles and Polygons) page 2 What can we discover that is true about a triangle? One well-known result concerns the sum of the angles of a triangle. We will do this with a paper triangle in class … a sort of kinesthetic proof. In a more formal way, we will work through a written proof. Given: Δ ABC Prove: m< 1 + m< 2 + m< 3 = 180 Proof: 1. Draw ECD || AB 1. 2. < 2 ______ 2. 3. < 3 ______ 3. 4. < ____ is supp to < ACD 4. 5. m < ____ + m < ACD = 180 5. Def supp 6. m< 1 +m < ____ = m < ACD 6. angle addition postulate 7. m < 1 + m < ____ + m < ____= 180 7 . 8. m< 1 + m < 2 + m < 3 = 180 8. QED Is the parallel postulate necessary in this proof? (We use this as the parallel postulate: If corresponding angles are congruent, then lines are parallel.) As an implication of this fact, we accept as true the fact that there is only one line through a point which is parallel to a given line.

CONVERGENCE of the RATIO of PERIMETER of a REGULAR POLYGON to the LENGTH of ITS LONGEST DIAGONAL AS the NUMBER of SIDES of POLYGON APPROACHES to ∞ Pawan Kumar B.K
CONVERGENCE OF THE RATIO OF PERIMETER OF A REGULAR POLYGON TO THE LENGTH OF ITS LONGEST DIAGONAL AS THE NUMBER OF SIDES OF POLYGON APPROACHES TO ∞ Pawan Kumar B.K. Kathmandu, Nepal Corresponding to: Pawan Kumar B.K., email: [email protected] ABSTRACT Regular polygons are planar geometric structures that are used to a great extent in mathematics, engineering and physics. For all size of a regular polygon, the ratio of perimeter to the longest diagonal length is always constant and converges to the value of 휋 as the number of sides of the polygon approaches to ∞. The purpose of this paper is to introduce Bishwakarma Ratio Formulas through mathematical explanations. The Bishwakarma Ratio Formulae calculate the ratio of perimeter of regular polygon to the longest diagonal length for all possible regular polygons. These ratios are called Bishwakarma Ratios- often denoted by short term BK ratios- as they have been obtained via Bishwakarma Ratio Formulae. The result has been shown to be valid by actually calculating the ratio for each polygon by using corresponding formula and geometrical reasoning. Computational calculations of the ratios have also been presented upto 30 and 50 significant figures to validate the convergence. Keywords: Regular Polygon, limit, 휋, convergence INTRODUCTION A regular polygon is a planar geometrical structure with equal sides and equal angles. For a 푛(푛−3) regular polygon of 푛 sides there are diagonals. Each angle of a regular polygon of n sides 2 푛−2 is given by ( ) 180° while the sum of interior angles is (푛 − 2)180°. The angle made at the 푛 center of any polygon by lines from any two consecutive vertices (center angle) of a polygon of 360° sides 푛 is given by .

Global Insight from Crown Chakra Dynamics in 3D? Strategic Viability Through Interrelating 1,000 Perspectives in Virtual Reality - /
Alternative view of segmented documents via Kairos 8 June 2020 | Draft Global Insight from Crown Chakra Dynamics in 3D? Strategic viability through interrelating 1,000 perspectives in virtual reality - / - Introduction Simpler crown chakra models Design options for a crown chakra with more complex dynamics Framing crown chakra dynamics in relation to symmetrical polyhedra Rendering crown chakra dynamics through interlocking tori Perspectives, projections and learning processes in 3D modelling Cognitive embodiment in the crown chakra? From helicopter to "psychopter": the role of anti-torque? Crown chakra understood as an axial turbofan -- an "attention breathing" jet engine? Balancing duality: objectivity vs subjectivity? Complementarity of pattern languages -- an all-encompassing meta-pattern? Dependence of viable global governance on pattern management? Meta-pattern, Meta-poesis and Music References Introduction The argument for imaginative exploration in 3D of the so-called "1,000-petalled lotus" -- the Crown Chakra or Sahasrara -- was developed in an earlier exercise (Satellite Constellation and Crown Chakra as Complementary Global Metaphors? Experimental representation of crown chakra in virtual reality, 2020). Various models were presented as animations in 3D, illustrated by video and accessible interactively according to the X3D protocol. Subsequent experiment has resulted in the direct presentation of a series of such 3D models in web pages, as indicated separately (Eliciting Insight from Mandala-style Logos in 3D: interactive engagement with mandalas and yantras in virtual reality, 2020). Distinct from the earlier approach, the models were directly interactive rather than requiring plugins or separate operations. The focus there on logos was inspired by the tendency of many organizations, and notably international institutions, to frame their identity through symbolic, mandala-like, imagery in 2D.

Basic Geometry Concepts and Definitions
BASIC GEOMETRY CONCEPTS AND DEFINITIONS: Geometry: It is an area of knowledge which studies any elements and operations on/in the plane such as points, lines or shapes. It comes from the Greek geo “earh”, metry “measurement”. Point: In geometry a point can be defined as the place or location where two lines intersect. A point has no dimensions, no height and no width. Line: a one-dimensional object formed of infinite points . It has no end points and continues on forever in a plane. Ray: A line which begins at a particular point (called the endpoint) and extends endlessly in one direction. End point:An End Point is a point at which a line segment or a ray ends or starts. Midpoint:It is the point that is halfway between the endpoints of the line segment. Line segment: It is a line with two endpoints Straight line: A line whose points follow the same direction. Plane: It is a two-dimensional (height and width) surface. In the space a plane can be defined by two paralel lines, two intersecting lines or one point and a straight line. Length:Measurement of something from end to end Listen and watch this LINE SEGMENT RAY STRAIGHT LINE video about basic geometry language A C B D online AB are End points for the line segment, C is its midpoint. D is the Ray's Endpoint. http://youtu.be/il0EJrY64qE GEOMETRY DRAWING AND SUPPLIES CONCEPTS AND DEFINITIONS: Freehand: Drawn by hand without guiding instruments, measurements. Line/Technical drawing: It is a drawing made with the help of supplies.
