What is formed by one side of a polygon and a line from the adjacent side?
An interior or exterior angle of the polygon.
What is the opposite side?
An "opposite side" depends on the shape that you have got. For a polygon with an even number of sides, (say 2n), the side which is opposite a given side is one that is nth from that side. In such a polygon a vertex does not have an opposite side. For a polygon with an odd number of sides, (say 2n+1), the side which is opposite a given vertex is one that is (n+1)th from that vertex. In such a polygon a side does not have an opposite side.
What is the name of a polygon with one sides?
A line?? It's impossible to have a polygon with only one side, hence the "poly" meaning many.
Explain the difference between a regular polygon and a nonregular polygon?
A regular polygon has all its angles equal AND all its sides equal. A nonregular polygon has at least one angle or one side that is different from the others.
What is the area of regular polygon with the side length of 8in.?
well, for one thing, what polygon is it. a triangle, a quadrilateral, what!? Two, if its only side is 8in., then it is not a polygon at all. it needs to be a closed plane of connecting lines.
What polygon has 1 sides?
There is no polygon with one side.
What is an angle formed by one side of a polygon and the extension of the adjacent side?
An exterior angle of the polygon.
What is the outside angle of the polygon when you extend one side of the polygon?
It is called an exterior angle.
What is the side of a polygon?
the side of a polygon is 6
What is a polygon that has one side called?
There isn't such thing as a one sided polygon. The definition of a polygon is a closed figure with straight lines. So technically it is just a line.
How many sides does a polygon has?
Depends. "Polygon" is a general term for a shape with more than one side.
How do you find the permeter of a polygon?
The perimeter of a polygon is the sum of the length of each of its sides. If the polygon is a regular polygon the you can calculate the perimeter as [number of sides] *[the length of one side]
What is the The perimeters of two similar polygons are 20 and 28. One side of the smaller polygon is 4. Find the corresponding side of the larger polygon.?
It is 5.6
Which polygon has one more side than a parallelogram?
A pentagon
What is the word for a nine sided polygon?
For a nine side polygon its called a nonagon.For a nine side polygon its called a nonagon.For a nine side polygon its called a nonagon.
A line segment that joins two vertices of a polygon but is not a side of the polygon?
………………………… is a line segment that joins two vertexof a polygon but is not a side of the polygon.
How do you calculate the area of the polygon?
If it is a regular polygon--meaning that all the sides are congruent and all the angles are congruent, then the formula for area of the polygon is A=1/2 ap Here a represents the apothem, which is the distance from the center of the polygon to the midpoint of one side. p represents the perimeter of the polygon found by multiplying one side length by the number of sides. If you only know one variable such as side length, you can find the perimeter and you can find the apothem using trigonomety.
