Naming Polygons & Name ________________________ Problem Set – Interior Angles per __ date ________ Naming polygons: start at a vertex (any vertex) and name that point; then pick a direction and walk around the polygon, naming the points IN ORDER. Example: possible correct names for the heptagon (right) are: heptagon ABCDEFG G heptagon BCDEFGA F heptagon CDEFGAB A heptagon DEFGABC etc. or: E heptagon GFEDCBA heptagon FEDCBAG heptagon EDCBAGF B etc. D C Give ALL POSSIBLE CORRECT names for this quadrilateral.
