LEARNING OBJECTIVES
3.
POLYGON
They are closedplane figure formed by line
segments that meet at a common point.
These line segments also known as sides
meet at a common point which is called
vertex.
TYPES OF POLYGON
Apolygon that has all
equal sides and angles.
REGULAR
POLYGON
IRREGULAR
POLYGON
A polygon that has
unequal sides and angles.

CONGRUENT POLYGONS
They arecomparison of two alike polygons
with corresponding sides and angles. To
illustrate congruency, it is represented by
the symbol which means “congruent to”.
