MATHEMATICS| POLYGON AND CIRCLE

Cards (14)

  • Polygon - is an closed figure whose line segment intersect at their endpoints
  • Sides - the line segments of a polygon
  • Vertex - an corner of a polygon where two sides intersect
  • Interior angle - angle formed by two sides at a vertex
  • Each interior angle angles of a polygon is less than 180°
  • Triangle sum theory - the sum of interior angles of a triangle is 180°
  • Circle - is the set of all points on a plane with a constant distance from a fixed point called the center of the circle
  • Radius- the equal distance from the center to any point on the circle
  • Chord - a segment whose endpoints lie on the circle
  • Diameter - A chord that passes through the center of the circle
  • Arc - A section of a circle
  • Central angle - an angle whose vertex is at the center of the circle and whose sides are the radii of the circle
  • Major arc - Arc that measures more than 180°
  • Minor arc- Arc less than 180°
