Naming a Polygon and Its Parts | Matatag Curriculum | Grade 7 | Explain in Detailed |
Summary
TLDRIn this educational video, Teacher MJ introduces the concept of polygons, focusing on naming and identifying their parts. The lesson defines a polygon as a closed figure with line segments in a two-dimensional plane. It distinguishes between a triangle, with three sides, and a quadrilateral, with four sides. The video explains the components of a polygon, including vertices where sides meet, sides as line segments, and angles formed by these sides. Teacher MJ emphasizes the importance of using consecutive vertices when naming polygons, providing multiple examples and variations for both triangles and quadrilaterals, ensuring a comprehensive understanding of the topic.
Takeaways
- 📚 A polygon is a closed figure made up of line segments in a two-dimensional plane.
- 🔢 A polygon with three sides is called a triangle, and one with four sides is called a quadrilateral.
- 📐 The parts of a polygon include vertices (points where sides meet), sides (line segments), and angles.
- 📌 The vertex is the point where two sides or line segments of a polygon meet, forming a corner.
- 🌐 Sides of a polygon are the line segments that connect the vertices, and they can be named in any order but are usually listed alphabetically.
- 🔄 Angles in a polygon are formed by two adjacent sides and can be named based on the vertices that form them, ensuring the vertex names are in a clockwise or counterclockwise order.
- 📝 When naming a polygon, the vertices must be listed consecutively, and the names must reflect this order.
- 🔄 For a triangle, there are six possible namings based on the order of the vertices, while a quadrilateral has eight possible namings.
- 📐 In a quadrilateral, the sides are named as pairs of vertices they connect, such as AB, BC, CD, and DA, and can be read in either direction.
- 📝 The script emphasizes the importance of consecutive vertex naming for polygons and provides examples of correct and incorrect naming conventions.
- 🤓 The lesson encourages students to ask questions and engage with the material, promoting an interactive learning environment.

📚 Introduction to Polygons and Their Parts
This paragraph introduces the topic of the video, which is about naming polygons and understanding their parts. The instructor, Teacher MJ, defines a polygon as a closed figure in a two-dimensional plane formed by line segments. It explains the basic types of polygons, such as a triangle with three sides and a quadrilateral with four sides. The paragraph also begins to explore the components of a polygon, starting with the 'vertex,' which is the point where the sides meet. The class is encouraged to identify vertices in a triangle and to understand the concept of vertices in polygons.
📐 Understanding Polygon Sides and Angles
Building on the concept of vertices, this paragraph delves into the sides of polygons, which are the line segments connecting vertices. The instructor clarifies that sides can be named in any order but are typically listed alphabetically. The paragraph then moves on to discuss the angles within a polygon, which are formed by the intersection of two sides. The class is guided through identifying the angles in a triangle, using the vertices as reference points to name each angle appropriately.
🔍 Deep Dive into Polygon Angles and Naming Conventions
This paragraph continues the exploration of polygon geometry by focusing on the angles within polygons. It emphasizes the importance of using the central vertex to correctly name the angles, ensuring that the vertices are listed in a consecutive manner. The paragraph also revisits the concept of naming polygons, highlighting the need for consecutive vertices in the naming process. The class is encouraged to practice identifying and naming the different angles of a polygon, ensuring they understand the correct naming conventions.
📘 Naming Polygons: Quadrilaterals and Beyond
The instructor transitions from triangles to quadrilaterals, discussing the vertices, sides, and angles of a four-sided polygon. The paragraph explains how to name a quadrilateral by using consecutive vertices, with a focus on maintaining the correct order. The class is taught that while there are multiple ways to name a quadrilateral, the vertices must always be listed consecutively. The paragraph also provides examples of incorrect naming to illustrate the importance of consecutive ordering.
🎓 Polygon Naming Variations and Conclusion
In the final paragraph, the instructor summarizes the process of naming polygons, emphasizing the flexibility in choosing different but correct names as long as the vertices are listed consecutively. The paragraph provides several examples of how a quadrilateral can be named, showcasing the eight different naming variations that are possible. The instructor wraps up the lesson by encouraging the class to ask questions if they have any and reminds them of the importance of practicing and understanding the concepts taught.

Hi guys good day It's me teacher MJ our
topic for today Class is all about
naming a polygon and its parts so
without further ad let's do this topic
now before we name the polygon class and
Identifying its parts let's define first
What is a polygon now polygon is a close
figure made up of line segments in a two
dimensional plane so for this first
illustration class we can call this one
polygon because it is a close figure and
it's made up of line segment
same with number two It is a close
figure made up of line segments now for
number one class we call this one
triangle a polygon with three sides we
call that one triangle and for number
two a polygon with four sides this
remember class What do you call a
polygon with four sides that's correct a
polygon with four sides we call that one
quadrilateral now before we name this
polygon class let's identify first what
are the parts of a polygon so the first
part of a polygon CL we have what we
call the
vertex All right Let's start with the
vertex now Sir what is a vertex now
vertex Class is a point on a polygon
where the sides and the line segments
meet so If This side together with This
side meet we can form a point and this
point right here Class is what we call
the vertex same with this one This side
together with This side when they meet
they can form a point and this point is
what we call the vertex so in this
triangle class we have three vertices
once again singular for this point we
can call this one vertex a so we have
vertex a we have vertex
B We also have vertex
C All right so once again class vertex
two sides or Line segments Meet And they
form a point This is what we call the
vertex in plural form class we can call
this one vertices so we have the
following vertices we have a we have b
and
C now the second part class of a polygon
is what we call the sides All right so
we have the sides now in this given
triangle class we have three sides we
have side ab side BC side AC or we can
also call this one line segment ab line
segment bc and line segment AC once
again we can do this marking for line
segment we have line segment
ab All right and then line segment
bc and then line segment AC So this
marking class horizontal line is what we
called line segment now question sir for
the side ab Okay this line segment ab
can we write This one Sir line segment
ba can we do that one Sir line segment
ba is it the same sir if we write line
segment pa Yep CL that's actually the
same you can read this one line segment
ab or line segment ba but most of the
books class they arrange the letters
alphabetically a comes first before b in
alphabet That's why we have line segment
ab but you can Actually write that one
class line segment ba this is just the
same class All right so let's have
or so we have the first side ab or once
again you can read that one line segment
ba second side BC line segment bc or
line segment CB So this is just the same
class It's up to you which do you prefer
next we have line segment AC or line
segment
ca so let's just write or Okay so It's
up to you which do you prefer you can
choose the sides or the sides so we have
three sides and last one class the part
of a polygon we have what we call the
angles so we have the
vertex we have the sides Okay first part
we have the vertex second part we have
the sides and last one we have what we
call the angles okay last one we have
what we called
angles now in this given triangle class
we have three angles so These are the
following
angles All right this one and this one
so let's start with this one one class
this first angle now this first angle
class we can call this one angle A okay
once again this is the symbol class for
angle we can call that one angle a now
question sir can we call this one angle
C ab can we call that one Sir angle Cab
Yup we can call that one class angle
angle
Cab
Cab just make sure CL that this vertex a
will be the center part of this
following vertices once again just make
sure that this vertex a will be the
center part of this following vertices
angle
Cab sir question can we read this one
angle B AC Yup you can Actually read at
one class angle bac This is this three
Class is just the same either of this
three class that you will choose for
your answer angle bac once again class
mak sure that this vertex a will be the
center part of this following vertices B
AC So that's the first angle right here
class Okay First angle we have angle a
or we can call that one angle Cab next
angle
bac All right though second angle we
have this given angle so let's start
with this given angle second angle angle
B so we can read this one angle B or
right so angle B so second angle angle B
sir can we read this one angle a bc Yup
you can read it one angle
ABC so angle
A B C just make sure class once again
just make sure that this B vertex V will
be the center part of this following
vertices A B C so B will be the center
part of this following three vertices
and you can also read this one cba once
again B should be the center part
cba angle cba so It's up to you class
which do you choose you can have this
answer angle a alone Yep that's okay
angle B alone that's okay or you can
choose this one angle Cab that's okay so
you can choose either of this one class
for this following three angles so you
can just simply use this one and simply
use this one so It's up to you class
which do you prefer So this is just the
same class either of this three class
you can Choose one and last angle we
have this
one angle C All right so we have angle
C so angle C and we can call this one
angle a CB angle a just make sure once
again C will be the center part of this
following vert vertices C Ah sorry AC CB
acb and then
bca angle bca
that's it you're all set for the parts
of a polygon we have the
vertex we have the sides and we have the
angles so the vertices the sides and the
angles so we have the
vertices so let me just box it in red we
have the vertices we have the sides and
we have the
angles now question How will you name
this polygon Sir now to name this
polygon class we can write the word
triangle itself so you can write the
word triangle
itself
triangle then you can read this one a bc
once again CL in naming the polygon It
must be consecutive vertices you can
name this one triangle ABC check plus
the vertices
ABC it is consecutive so triangle
ABC or you can just simply illustrate
this given word angle you can just
simply illustrate this one triangle this
illustration CL it means triangle then
ABC so That's How You name class
question sir question can we read this
one triangle bca is this consecutive
vertices Yep you can read this one class
triangle bca triangle B ca just make
sure class are is consecutive vertices
you read this one consecutive vertices
what else class can we read this one
triangle Cab can we do that one triangle
Cab Yup we can read that one triangle
Okay triangle Cab
Cab All right So what else C can we read
this one triangle a CB can we do that
one so check Do we have it here triangle
acb Yep we can read that one triangle
acb
a CB Let's have counterclockwise
a
CB All Right what else class can we read
this one cba can we do that one Do we
have cba here Yup we can read that one c
b a what else class can we read this one
b a Yup we can read that one b triangle
B
AC All right so That's How You name the
triangles class we have six names for
this one triangle ABC so we have this
one triangle
ABC Al right triangle ABC or we can
write this one this given illustration
right here this marking is what we call
triangle this illustration is a triangle
so we have triangle ABC we have triangle
bca Okay this one 1 2 3 4 5 6 so we can
name this one CL this triangle six names
so we can read this one triangle
ABC triangle BC ca so once again CL as
long as the as long as the vertices you
read that one cons with consecutive
vertices but once again class mostly in
the books class they arrange the letters
alphabetically That's why you have
triangle ABC Okay triangle
ABC All right so let's have example
number two so I hope you get this one CL
for example number one if you have some
questions CL do not hesitate to ask CL
once again do not hesitate to ask if you
have some question with number one CL
feel free to ask us you put your comment
in the com section down below All right
Let's have example number two All right
so let's have example number two once
again we start at the
vertex so the vertex we have Okay vertex
we have vertex a so we have vertex
a right and then we have vertex B so we
have four vertices vert b and then vert
C All right and then vertex
d or we can write this one we have the
following vertices so the vertices We
have
a we have B we have C and we have d so
we have four vertices All right We're
done with the vertices for number
two All right so next step or the next
part of a polygon we have what we call
the
sides so next we have the
sides All right so we have side ab once
again side ab so or we can write this
one line segment ab or we Just write or
class for you to choose which do you
prefer so we have side ab or we can read
it one line segment ba we have line
segment ab or line segment ba that's
Actually the same All right and we have
line segment
bc or we can write that one CB line
segment CB So that's Actually Okay class
CB line segment CD so line segment CD or
we have DC line segment DC and then line
segment
ad or we have line segment
da All right so Just write or class once
again class It's either of this two
class you can choose line segment ba
that's Actually Okay you can choose line
segment CB for bc instead of bc you can
choose CB okay or you can just simply
use this following sides ab side ab line
segment ab line segment bc line segment
CD and then line segment
ad All right So we're done with the
sides now next step we have the
following
angles so angles
So we're done with the
vertices So we're done with the
vertices We're done with the sides and
next will be the angles so we have Let's
start with the angle a Okay so angle
a so angle a now we can call this angle
a so once again this is the first angle
we have angle a Now you can also read
this one class angle b a angle b
a or we can read that one angle
daab angle d ab once again class just
make sure Okay just make sure class that
this vertex A okay this vertex a will be
the center part of this following
vertices make sure that this vertex a
will be the center part of this
following vertices so bad or
dab All right and We also have this
given angle angle
B so we can read this one angle
B All right so angle b and then angle
ABC so angle a bc or that would be angle
cba angle C then B then a once again
just make sure that this B will be the
center part of this following three
vertices so ABC this given angle or
cba All right So we're done with the
second angle Let's have the third angle
So this given angle right here angle C
so we can read that one angle
C All right so angle C or we can read
this one angle
bcd angle bcd
bcd or angle dcb angle d C then B so we
don't have enough space class angle
d c then
B All right and then last one so we have
vertex
a CD we have the sides four sides we
have four vertices and we have four
angles one two three and then last one
this one angle
d so we have angle d or we can read this
one angle d that would be angle a DC
angle a then d then
C or angle
cda
cda once again Let's make sure that this
d will be the center part of this
following vertices cda angle CD then a
All right so All set class for the
vertex for the sides and the angle so
next step class we name this
quadrilateral so be careful class in
naming this quadrilateral once again
class always remember it must be
consecutive vertices All right So this
one class so quadrilateral You can put
the word itself
quadrilateral
quadrilateral All right so
quadrilateral a b cd a b c d so once
again Let's make sure that the vertices
are consecutive vertices a b c d
question sir can we read this one once
again once again CL for this
quadrilateral class you can just simply
write the symbol or draw the symbol
class it means quadrilateral So this is
the symbol of Quadrilateral class this
is the symbol so you can just simply
write this one or draw the symbol and
then a CD that's Actually Okay class it
means quadrilateral ABC d once again the
symbol right here it means quadrilateral
then ab CD So you Pause the video class
because we will be naming this one Okay
we will be naming this one you Pause the
video I'll be erasing this one class we
don't have enough space because we need
to name this one class is step by step
Okay so you Pause the video I'll be
erasing this one and then we will be
naming the quadrilateral sir can we name
this one
quadrilateral
acbd How about this one one class AC bd
can we do that one class can we name
that one quadrilateral AC C bd can we do
that one Nope we cannot do that one
class Okay we cannot do this one Why is
that sir Because the vertices class are
not consecutive it is opposite to C
class A is opposite to C we cannot do
that one class it should be consecutive
vertices question sir can we read this
one
quadrilateral
adcb can we do that one Sir a d CB a CB
can we do that one Sir Yup you can
Actually do that one class this is
acceptable class we can read this one AC
DB a i sorry
adcb a d CB because the vertices class
are consecutive a next is D next is c
next is B so we can name that one A D CB
what else CL so we can name this one
Quad trilateral d cba Yup we can do that
one D
cba Okay can we name this one class c a
DB can we do that one class c a DB can
we do that one Nope we cannot do that
one because once again quadrilateral
ca DB can we do that one c a DB Nope we
cannot do that one class because c is
opposite to a It must be consecutive
class so we cannot do this one So it
should be
quadrilateral Okay
quadrilateral CB a c b a d All right So
what else class so we cannot do this one
this is opposite the vertices are
opposite what else class so Help me with
this one class we have
CB a d so we can read this one a b an
Sorry b a DC b
a
DC All right So what else class we have
b a DC then ad CB We're done with this
one Okay let's have clockwise so a CD ab
CD and then bc Do we have bcda nope
don't have it here All right so
quadrilateral bcda
bcda and then quadrilateral
cdb
CD ab and then
quadrilateral DC Do we have DC Nope we
don't have d a b Den da B denc that's it
CL all set so we have how many names CL
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 so we can name this one
eight Okay we can name this one It
depends on nucleus which to prefer class
so we can name this one class
quadrilateral
ABCD
ABCD
adcb so we can do that one class As Long
class just remember this one class you
can name any polygon As long the
vertices are consecutive vertices class
one after another so a b c d b c d a you
can do that one c d a b All right so
That's How You name class you can choose
class either of this one class you can
have this answer you can have this one
either of this one this one this one so
just Choose one class so let's have this
one class but once again class It's up
to you which do you prefer you can
Choose any of this one class you can
Choose one All right so I hope you learn
something new today class that's it for
naming a polygon and it's part so I hope
you learn something new today once again
if you have some questions with regards
to this one CL do not hesitate to ask
you put your question comment section
down below so I hope you learn something
new today class Do not forget to like
share and subscribe you share to your
friends and to your classmates so that
we can help more students once again
