A polygon is a closed figure made by joining line segments, where each line segment intersects exactly

two others.

Polygons

Page 3: A polygon is a closed figure made by joining line segments, where each line segment intersects exactly two others. Polygons

Q: Is this a polygon? Why or why not?

A: No…Polygons are

closed figures.

Q: Is this a polygon? Why or why not?

A: No…It is not made of line segments.

Q: Is this a polygon? Why or why not?

A: No…Its sides do not intersect in

exactly two places each.

Q: What shape is this? Is this a polygon? Why or why not?

A: It is a circle and it is not a polygon because it is made up of

one curved line.

Q: What shape is this? Is this a polygon? Why or why not?

A: It is a square. It is a polygon because it is made up of line segments that each intersect

exactly two other line segments.

Q: What shape is this? Is this a polygon? Why or why not?

A: It is a rhombus. It is a polygon because it is made up

of line segments that each intersect exactly two other line

segments.

Q: What shape is this? Is this a polygon? Why or why not?

A: It is a hexagon. It is a polygon because it is made up of line segments that each intersect

exactly two other line segments.

Q: What shape is this? Is this a polygon? Why or why not?

A: It is a triangle. It is a polygon because it is made up of line segments that each intersect

exactly two other line segments.

Q: What shape is this? Is this a polygon? Why or why not?

A: It is an oval. It is not a polygon because it is made up

of one curved line.
