Study Notes
Classification of Polygons
- Polygons are classified based on the number of sides they possess.
Regular Polygons
- Regular polygons have all sides and angles equal, maintaining symmetry throughout.
Special Quadrilaterals
- Squares are quadrilaterals characterized by having four right angles and all sides of equal length.
Pentagons
- A regular pentagon is a five-sided polygon where all sides and angles are equal, contributing to its symmetrical structure.
