A Polygon Is Convex If No Line That Contains a Side of the Polygon Passes ,Through the Interior of the Polygon NAME DATE For use with pages A polygon is convex if no line that contains a side of the polygon passes ,through the interior of the polygon. A polygon that is not convex is called concave. A polygon is equilateral if all of its sides are congruent. A polygon is equiangular if all of its interior angles are congruent. A polygon is regular if it is both equilateral and equiangular. Decide whether the polygon is convex or ,concave. None of the extended sides pass through the interior. So, the polygon is convex. At least one extended side passes through the interior. So, the polygon is concave. Copyright © McDougal Littell Inc. Chapter 8 Resource Book All rights reserved. LESSON NAME DATE [] For use with pages Decide whether the polygon is regular. Explain your answer. a. The polygon is equilateral because all of the sides are congruent. The polygon is not equiangular because not all of the angles are congruent. So, the polygon i~s not regular. b. The polygon is equilateral because all of the sides are congruent. The polygon is equiangular because all of the angles are congruent. So, the polygon is regular. The polygon is regular. Find the value of x. B__C Because the polygon is regular, all of its sides are congruent. +1 AB = DE The sides of the polygon are congruent. E 25 = 6x+ 1 Substitute 25 for AB and 6x + 1 for DE. 24 = 6x Subtract 1 from each side. 4--X Divide each side by 6. 10. 15 Copyright © McDougal Littell Inc. All rights reserved.

  • Pumαc - Power Round
    PUMαC - Power Round. Geometry Revisited Stobaeus (one of Euclid's students): "But what shall I get by-learning these things?" Euclid to his slave: "Give him three pence, since he must make gain out of what he learns." - Euclid, Elements As the title puts it, this is going to be a geometry power round. And as it always happens with geometry problems, every single result involves certain particular con- figurations that have been studied and re-studied multiple times in literature. So even though we tryed to make it as self-contained as possible, there are a few basic preliminary things you should keep in mind when thinking about these problems. Of course, you might find solutions separate from these ideas, however, it would be unfair not to give a general overview of most of these tools that we ourselves used when we found these results. In any case, feel free to skip the next section and start working on the test if you know these things or feel that such a section might bound your spectrum of ideas or anything! 1 Prerequisites Exercise -6 (1 point). Let ABC be a triangle and let A1 2 BC, B1 2 AC, C1 2 AB, with none of A1, B1, and C1 a vertex of ABC. When we say that A1 2 BC, B1 2 AC, C1 2 AB, we mean that A1 is in the line passing through BC, not necessarily the line segment between them. Prove that if A1, B1, and C1 are collinear, then either none or exactly two of A1, B1, and C1 are in the corresponding line segments.

  • Chapter 3 –Polygons and Quadrilaterals Concepts & Skills
    Chapter 3 –Polygons and Quadrilaterals The Star of Lakshmi is an eight pointed star in Indian philosophy that represents the eight forms of the Hindu goddess Lakshmi. Lakshmi is the goddess of good fortune and prosperity. Of importance to us however, is not the philosophical meaning of the star (although it is very interesting!) but rather that the symbol is an 8 pointed star – otherwise known as a complex star, formed by the intersection of two squares. In the picture to the left we see that this joining of squares forms both regular and irregular shapes. These shapes are called polygons and quadrilaterals. In this chapter we explore the properties of polygons and then narrow our focus to quadrilaterals. Concepts & Skills The skills and concepts covered in this chapter include: • Define, identify, and classify polygons and quadrilaterals • Differentiate between convex and concave shapes • Find the sums of interior angles in convex polygons. • Identify the special properties of interior angles in convex quadrilaterals. • Define a parallelogram. • Understand the properties of a parallelogram • Apply theorems about a parallelogram’s sides, angles and diagonals. • Prove a quadrilateral is a parallelogram in the coordinate plane. • Define and analyze a rectangle, rhombus, and square. • Determine if a parallelogram is a rectangle, rhombus, or square in the coordinate plane. • Analyze the properties of the diagonals of a rectangle, rhombus, and square. • Define and find the properties of trapezoids, isosceles trapezoids, and kites. • Discover the properties of mid-segments of trapezoids. • Plot trapezoids, isosceles trapezoids, and kites in the coordinate plane.

  • Planar Line Families. H
    PLANAR LINE FAMILIES. H PRESTON C. HAMMER AND ANDREW SOBCZYK 1. Introduction. An outwardly simple planar line family has been defined in the first paper of this series [l] to be a family of lines which simply covers the exterior of some circle, including points at infinity. In [l] a characterization of outwardly simple line families is given and a construction method presented for all constant diameter- length convex bodies in the plane. In this paper we give a characterization of outwardly simple line families when represented in essentially normal form as a one- parameter family of lines. The internal complexity of an outwardly simple line family is then studied. Two classes of points, the contact points and the turning points of a line family, are defined. The union of these classes forms a generalized envelope of the line family. It is shown, in particular, that the set of all points lying either on an even number of lines or on an infinite number of lines in an outwardly simple line family is of planar measure zero. The set of all intersection points of pairs of lines in an outwardly simple line family is shown to be convex relative to the line family. 2. Characterization of outwardly simple line families. Let F be an outwardly simple line family and let ß be a circle of radius r contain- ing in its interior all intersection points of pairs of lines in F. Let a cartesian coordinate system, {u, v), be chosen so that the origin is at the center of ß.
