8-8 Angles in Polygons
Polygon -
A closed figure with 3 or more straight sides that do not cross.
Determine whether each figure is a polygon. If it is not, explain why not.

8-8 Angles in Polygons
You should find that they formed a straight angle.
This suggests that the sum of the measures of the angles in a triangle is 180°.
Take the paper triangle on your desk and name the corners 1, 2, and 3.
Carefully tear off two of the corners.
Rotate them so the straight edges meet at the vertex and point in the same direction as the un-torn corner.
