Chapter 1 Study Guide

The following topics will be on the Chapter 1 Test. Make sure to go over the topics over the weekend so if you have any questions we can address them in class on Monday.

Polygons:

  • ·         Determine the angle measures of regular polygons. (Hint: all the angles in a regular polygon are equal)
  • ·         Identify the type of polygon it is based on the sides and vertices.
  • ·         Determine the number of degrees in a given polygon using the formula (n-2)* 180
  • ·         Review the characteristics of polygons, ex: concave, convex, regular, irregular, has a line of symmetry, or has no lines of symmetry

Angles:

  •             Estimate the measure of angles using benchmark angles. (90°, 180°, 360°)
  •             Determine if an angle is acute or obtuse.
  •             Measure an angle using a protractor. (Hint: the bottom ray will point to the zero you will have to use in order to find the correct measure.)
  •             Determine the missing vertical angles
  •             Review supplementary angles. (Hint: they are angles that add up to 180°) and complementary angles (Hint: they are two angles that add up to 90°)
