Explain why the shape of a football in not a polygon
No. A circle, for example, is a closed shape but it is not a polygon.
Because a football is a three dimensional object whereas polygons are two dimensional shapes.
A polygon is any closed shape with five sides
An internal angle of the polygon.
Explain why the shape of a football in not a polygon
No. A circle, for example, is a closed shape but it is not a polygon.
A football isn't a polygon because it has 2 sides curved which makes it an oval.A polygon doesn't have a curved side(s)
No because a polygon is a plane figure. A football is a bit like a polyhedron, but all the faces of a polyhedron must be flat and, because of inflation, those of a football are not.
It doesn't have any straight lines
Because the edges are not curved so if you were to draw it it should go straight
Because it is an 8 sided flat 2 dimensional shape
Because a football is a three dimensional object whereas polygons are two dimensional shapes.
A non polygon is a shape that doesn't meet the requierments to be a polygon. In order to be a polygon, a shape must have no curved lines and must be a closed shape.
