Round 1: Naming Polygons

The teacher shows a road sign that is a polygon (from the
flashcards or on the screen). Players have 10 seconds to write
down the name of the polygon based on the number of sides and
what polygon it reminds you. Correct answers earn 1 point.

Naming Polygon and its Parts

 Worked Example

Polygons may be
named based on
the number of
sides.
 Worked Example

Triangle

It has three sides –

the prefix – “tri”
 Worked Example

Polygons
Polygons may be classified
according to the number of sides.
Prefixes are used, such as tri, quad,
penta, etc.
 Worked Example

A polygon is named using

its vertices. The vertices are
points A, B, and C. So, the
triangle may be called
triangle ABC, triangle BCA,
or triangle ACB.
 Worked Example

Sides of triangle ABC are

AB

 Worked Example

Interior angles of triangle

ABC are :
∠BAC
∠BCA

Complete the table.

For naming sides and interior angles, choose 1 or 2

polygons from column 1. Not advisable to do it in
all polygons in column 1.

Note this!
a. polygons maybe classified according to
the number of sides
b. number of sides and number of interior
angles of any polygon are the same

 Explicitation

What do you know

about a square?
 Explicitation

Square
A square has 4 sides. A square has 4
equal sides. All interior angles of a
square are equal to 90 degrees.
Square is one of the regular polygons
 Explicitation

What do you think is

special in square that
makes it regular
polygon?
 Explicitation

In geometry, if sides of a
polygon are equal, they can
see markings as shown in the
figure at the right, you may
draw markings in your given
square.
 Explicitation

The markings mean the

same measures of sides and
the other marking in blue
means that the measure of
each angle is 90 degrees.

3. When polygons are regular, we just add the

term “regular” to its name, except for regular
triangle – we call it equilateral triangle and
for regular quadrilateral- we call it square.

Activity 3: Drawing Polygons

Instructions: Draw each
polygon using your ruler,
protractor, and compass.
 Drawing 1

Regular pentagon with

side length of 2 cm.

Step 1: Start with a circle with a

radius of 2 cm. To do this, draw
a line segment 2cm long, then
use a compass to draw the
circle using the segment as the
radius.
 Drawing 1

Step 2: Divide the circle into

five equal parts by marking
points every 72° around the
center. Use protractor in
doing this.
