Name each polygon tell if it appears to be a regular polygon?

It is not possible to name each polygon since there are infinitely many of them. There is no relationship between whether a polygon is regular and the number of sides or angles that it has. So, there is no way to determine, from its name, if a polygon is regular.


How can you tell a regular polygon is a regular polygon?

Each of the sides are the same length, and each of the internal angles are identical.


How can you tell if a polygon will tile plane?

A regular polygon will tile it if its internal angle divides 360 degrees.


How do you tell if a polygon is a regular polygon?

A regular polygon is one that has all congruent sides ANDall equal inside angles.A rhombus doesn't qualify. All of its sides are the same length, but it's anglesare not all the same size.


How can you tell if a shape tesselates?

If the interior angles of a regular polygon are factors of 360 then it will tesselate.

How can you tell whether a polygon is a convex?

A polygon (or any other plane shape) is convex if you take any two points inside it (or on its boundary) then the line joining those points is wholly inside (or on the boundary of) the polygon.


Explain how to tell whether a polygon is a convex?

If, for any two points A and B in the polygon, all points with position A + kB are inside the polygon for 0 ≤ k ≤ 1, then the polygon is convex. In simple terms, if all points on the line AB lie inside the polygon, it is convex. If there is at least one point on AB that is outside the polygon then it is not a convex polygon.

How do you figure the perimeter of a polygon with an area of 72?

I can not tell you. It is because i do not know what shape the polygon is. You must tell me that first.


How can you tell if a regular polygon will tessellate?

If you subtract two from the amount of sides there are in the polygon than mutiply that by 180 you than divide that number by the original amount of sides there was by 360 and if it goes into it without a decimal it tessalates. Ex. (10-2)180/360
