    Study Notes

    Curves

    • A curve is a plane figure formed by joining points without lifting a pencil and without retracing any part of the drawing except single points.
    • Curves can be open or closed, simple or not simple.

    Regions

    • Interior: The region inside the boundary of a closed curve.
    • Exterior: The region outside the boundary of a closed curve.

    Polygons

    • A polygon is a simple closed curve made of line segments.
    • Examples of curves that are polygons: triangles, quadrilaterals, etc.
    • Examples of curves that are not polygons: curves with curved sides.

    Classification of Polygons

    • Polygons are classified by the number of their sides.
    • 3 sides → Triangle
    • 4 sides→ Quadrilateral
    • 5 sides → Pentagon
    • 6 sides → Hexagon
    • 7 sides -> Heptagon
    • 8 sides → Octagon
    • 9 sides → Nanogon
    • 10 sides → Decagon
    • n sides → n-gon

    Diagonals

    • A diagonal is a line segment joining two non-consecutive vertices of a polygon.

    Convex and Concave Polygons

    • Convex polygon: The measure of each interior angle is less than 180°. All diagonals lie inside the polygon.
    • Concave polygon: At least one interior angle is more than 180°. Some diagonals lie outside the polygon.

    Regular and Irregular Polygons

    • Regular polygon: A polygon that is both equilateral (all sides equal) and equiangular (all angles equal).
    • Irregular polygon: A polygon that is not both equilateral and equiangular.

    Angle Sum Property of a Triangle

    • The sum of all three angles of a triangle is 180°.

    Angle Sum Property of a Quadrilateral

    • The sum of all four angles of a quadrilateral is 360°.

    Properties of Trapezium

    • The interior angles on the same side of each of the non-parallel sides are supplementary.
    • If the non-parallel sides are equal, then it's an isosceles trapezium.

    Properties of Kite

    • The diagonals are perpendicular to one another.
    • One of the diagonals bisects the other.
    • One pair of opposite angles are equal.

    Properties of Parallelogram

    • Opposite sides are equal and parallel.
    • Opposite angles are equal.
    • Adjacent angles are supplementary.
    • Diagonals bisect each other.

    Properties of Rhombus

    • All sides are equal.
    • Opposite angles are equal.
    • Adjacent angles are supplementary.
    • Diagonals bisect each other at right angles.

    Properties of Rectangle

    • All angles are right angles (90°).
    • Opposite sides are equal and parallel.
    • Diagonals are equal.
    • Diagonals bisect each other.

    Properties of Square

    • All sides are equal.
    • All angles are right angles (90°).
    • Diagonals are equal.
    • Diagonals bisect each other at right angles.
