Study Notes

Quadrilaterals and Polygons

  • A heptagon has 7 sides.
  • A five-sided figure is called a pentagon.
  • A nonagon contains 9 sides.
  • A hexagon is defined as a 6-sided figure.
  • A concave polygon features at least one interior angle greater than 180°.

Regular Polygons

  • Regular polygons have all sides and angles congruent.
  • Examples of regular polygons include equilateral triangles and squares.

Parallelogram Properties

  • In parallelogram ABCD, if m∠ABC = 96°, then m∠ADC equals 96° due to opposite angles being congruent.
  • If m∠ABC = 96°, then m∠BAD = 84° since consecutive angles are supplementary.
  • Statements not always true for any parallelogram include:
    • Diagonals being congruent.
    • Diagonals being perpendicular.
  • Diagonals of a parallelogram always bisect each other.

Measurement and Relationships

  • To find the value of angle z in a parallelogram, one must consider the properties of opposite angles.
  • In parallelogram LMNO, if LM = 7x - 4 and NO = 4x + 11, equate and solve for x.
  • For the mid-segment of a trapezoid, the measure is the average of the lengths of the two bases.

Specific Quadrilaterals

  • A rhombus is defined as a quadrilateral where all four sides are congruent.
  • An isosceles trapezoid has legs that are congruent, base angles that are congruent, and diagonals that are congruent.
  • A kite is a type of quadrilateral characterized by two distinct pairs of adjacent congruent sides and no parallel sides.

Interior Angles and Sums

  • The sum of the interior angles of a polygon with n sides is calculated by the formula (n - 2) × 180°; for a 17-sided polygon, this equals 2700°.
  • The measure of an interior angle in a regular decagon (10-sided polygon) is 144°.

Angle Relationships

  • In supplementary angles, if m∠1 = 43°, then m∠3 can be found since ∠1 and ∠2 are supplementary and ∠2 and ∠3 are vertical angles; this leads to m∠3 = 137°.
  • To find angle measures, utilize known angles, and properties of congruent and supplementary angles.

Properties of Rectangles and Rhombuses

  • Not all rectangles have four congruent sides; a rectangle has four right angles and diagonals that bisect each other which is always true.
  • For rhombuses, diagonals bisect each other but do not guarantee four right angles.
