Regular and Irregular polygons
What is the difference between a quadrilateral and a polygon?
Quadrilateral: A quadrilateral is a plane figure bounded by four straight lines
and containing four angles.
Polygon: A polygon is a plane figure bounded by more than four straight
lines and containing more than four angles.
Triangle is one of the polygon?
Triangle is a polygon of 3 sides.
There are also three vertices, one at each point. This is the simplest polygon,
because you can't construct one with just 1 or 2 sides.
What is the difference
between a parallelogram and a rhombus?
Parallelogram: A
parallelogram is a quadrilateral in which the opposite sides are equal and
parallel.
Rhombus: A rhombus is a
quadrilateral in which all the sides are equal and the angles are not right
angles.
However,
in this case the opposite angles are equal.
What is the difference
between regular and irregular polygons?
Regular polygon: A regular polygon is a plane figure in which all the sides and angles are equal.
Regular polygon: A regular polygon is a plane figure in which all the sides and angles are equal.
Irregular polygon: An
irregular polygon is a plane figure in which all the sides and angles are not
equal.
