How do you find the area of a polygon using its vertices?
Select any one of the vertices and draw all the diagonals from that vertex. This will divide the polygon (with n sides) into n-2 triangles. Use the coordinates of the vertices of each triangle to calculate its area, and then add the areas of these triangles together.
Why can't you draw a diagonal in a triangle?
Because it has only 3 sides and a polygon must have 4 or more sides to have diagonals. A diagonal of a polygon is a line segment which connects two non-adjacent vertices. Since from any vertex of a triangle, you are adjacent to both of the other vertex, there are not any non-adjacent vertices.
Can you draw a hexagon?
A hexagon is a geometric shape with six sides. To draw one, draw a polygon with six sides.
Draw a polygon that has no parallel sides?
A hexagon and a triangle
How do you draw nanogon?
A nonagon is a polygon with 9 sides
How many vertices does a polygon have?
A polygon is a closed shape with straight sides. The number of vertices a polygon has is equal to the number of corners or points where the sides meet. For example, a triangle has 3 vertices, a quadrilateral has 4 vertices, a pentagon has 5 vertices, and so on. In general, an n-sided polygon will have n vertices.
How many diagonals can be drawn from a vertex of an n gon?
n-3 diagonals. Of the n vertices of the polygon, you cannot draw diagonals to the two adjacent vertices since these are sides of the polygon and so not diagonals. And you cannot draw a diagonal from a vertex to itself. So those are three vertices that are ruled out, leaving n-3.

Can you draw a figure with three points that are noncollinear?
Of course. The vertices of a triangle, and any three vertices of any other polygon, are non-collinear. In the case of a triangle and a quadrilateral, if you had three collinear vertices, then you couldn't have the polygon.
Which POLYgon has the greatest amount of bases and faces?
There is no greatest. Any polygon you draw, no matter how many sides it has, I can always draw a polygon with more sides than yours has. They don't all have names, but there's no limit to the number of sides they can have.
Draw a polygon that has no parallel sides?
A hexagon and a triangle

A nonagon is a polygon with 9 sides
If given any regular polygon how can you find the center of the circle that circumscribes the polygon?
Draw the perpendicular bisectors of any two sides which are not directly opposite one another. These will meet at the centre of the circle.If it has an even number of vertices, simply join two pair of opposite vertices. They will intersect at the centre of the circle.
Alyssa draws two different plane figures. Her plane figures either have more than 4 sides or fewer than 4 vertices. Which plane figures does she draw?
polygon of more than 4 sides and a triangle.
The sides of the polygon are chords of the circle?
Then you would draw the polygon inside of the circle, or in other words, "inscribe" the polygon.
