Polygons

Shapes with many sides!

Page 2: Polygons Shapes with many sides! Two-dimensional Shapes (2D) These shapes are flat and can only be drawn on paper. They have two dimensions – length

Two-dimensional Shapes (2D)

• These shapes are flat and can only be drawn on paper.

• They have two dimensions – length and width.

• They are sometimes called plane shapes.

PolygonsTwo-dimensional shapes

that have sides made from straight lines.

• E.g. triangles squares hexagons

Pentagon• A two-dimensional

shape with five straight sides and five angles.

Lines of Symmetry - Look at these shapes

Can you suggest a rule?

Regular shapes

All the sides are the same length

All the angles are equal

Have the same number of lines ofsymmetry as the number of sides
