How do you use the distance formula and slope formula to classify a quadrilateral? When using the slope formula, the slopes can tell what angles it has or if lines are perpendicular or not or if the sides are parallel.
Oct 24, 2023 · Dive into the world of geometry and learn how to easily identify and classify diverse polygons based on their sides and angles. Polygons are closed, flat (or two-dimensional) shapes formed by straight lines.

So, what is a polygon? A polygon is a closed sided figure, formed by three or more segments that never cross. And we can further identify it’s type as either convex, concave or regular. A convex polygon is when no line that contains a side of the polygon includes a point in the interior of the polygon. And a concave polygonis one that is not convex...
But how do we name a polygon? Polygons are named by the number of sides they have! And just like there are some incredible properties about triangles, there are some important theorems and properties regarding quadrilaterals. As in a triangle, quadrilaterals have both interior and exterior angles, and the sum of the interior angles in any quadrilat...

How do you classify shapes? You can classify shapes based on their properties. Properties are qualities that a shape has. Examples of shape properties are: number of sides. length of sides....
Closed shapes or figures in a plane with three or more sides are called polygons. Alternatively, a polygon can be defined as a closed planar figure that is the union of a finite number of line segments.
Apr 7, 2019 · Identifying Properties of Shapes. I wanted students to be able to focus on the attributes of 2D shapes without depending on the “it looks like this, so it must be this shape” mindset. A lot of times students don’t actually consider the individual attributes of a shape which makes classifying polygons nearly impossible!

Sample Problem 1: Tell whether the figure is a polygon and whether it is convex or concave. Sample Problem 2: Draw a figure that fits the description. Commonly Used Polygons. In an Equilateral Polygon, all sides are congruent. In an Equiangular Polygon, all angles in the interior of the polygon are congruent.
