connecting line segments
sides
vertices
A closed figure formed by connecting 3 or more line
segments at their endpoints. The segments are the sides of
the polygon while the endpoints are the vertices

APPLICATION

Prepare a ½ pad paper and draw the
following polygons. One is convex
and the other is non-convex.
1. Hexagon
2. Heptagon
3. Octagon
EVALUATION

Draw an evacuation map in your
sitio when calamity occurs from your
house. Use different kinds of
polygons as your markers in your
plan. Identify each polygon used in
the map.
