<strong>5.4</strong> <strong>Polygons</strong>A polygon is a closed plane figureformed by three or more segments.It is named by its number of sides.Polygon<strong>Triangle</strong><strong>Quadrilateral</strong><strong>Pentagon</strong><strong>Hexagon</strong><strong>Heptagon</strong>Octagonn-gonNumber of Sides
<strong>Quadrilateral</strong>s can be further classified...<strong>Quadrilateral</strong>(has 4 sides)Parallelogram(has 2 pairs ofparallel sides)Trapezoid(has exactly 1 pairof parallel sides)Rectangle(has 4 right angles)Rhombus(has 4 congruent sides)Square(has 4 congruent sides and 4 right angles)
