6.1 A is a closed plane figure formed by three or more line segments such that:  Each segment intersects exactly two other segments only at their endpoints

 No two segments with a common endpoint are collinear

6.1 Each segment that forms a polygon is a side of the polygon.

The common endpoint of two sides is a vertex of the polygon.

A segment that connects any two non-consecutive vertices is a .

You can name a polygon by the number of sides: Number of sides Name of polygon 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 12 n

6.1 A concave polygon is a polygon is a polygon for which at least one diagonal contains points in the exterior of the polygon. A concave polygon will have at least one interior that measures more than 180 degrees.
