This document defines and provides key information about different types of polygons. It discusses polygons in general, then focuses on quadrilaterals. It defines triangles, quadrilaterals, pentagons, hexagons, heptagons, octagons, nonagons, and decagons. It then discusses properties of special quadrilaterals including parallelograms, rectangles, squares, rhombi, kites, and trapezoids. It provides the sufficient conditions to prove each type of polygon or quadrilateral and includes examples.

- 2. Polygons Quadrilaterals Sufficient conditions Polygons Polygons Sum of the interior angles of a polygon with n sides = (n 2)180尊 Sum of the exterioranglesof any polygon = 360尊 A regular polygon is a polygon with equal sidesand therefore equal anglestoo. Every interior angle of a regular polygon with nsides 360o n . Polygons . Important formulas concerning polygons: n Every exterior angle of a regular polygon with nsides = 2 o = (n 2)180

Kite Sufficient conditions to provea kite Prove that two pairs of adjacent sides are equal Remember: NOT a parallelogram Trapezium Sufficient conditions to provea trapezium Prove that one pair of opposite sides are parallel Remember: NOT a parallelogram Example: ABCD is a parallelogram with DF = EB. Prove that AECF is a parallelogram. Complete the following statements: 9 2. 3. 4. 5. 1 If the diagonals of a quadrilateral are not equal, but bisect each other perpendicularly, the quadrilateral is a A triangle that has three equal sides is called an . triangle. If both pairs of adjacent sides of a quadrilateral are equal, but the opposite sides are not equal, the quadrilateral is a . If the diagonals of a quadrilateral are equal and bisect each other perpendicularly, the quadrilateral is a. If both pairs of opposite angles of a quadrilateral are equal, the quadrilateral is a
