Anyone who is good at Perimeter and Area help. https://static.k12.com/calms_media/media/243500_244000/243615/1/f79c8cfb2bcb689b77d13bf06380915e95d58b2c/VHS_PA_S2_03_L207_L307_Q1.gif Which completely describes the polygon? A. regular B. equilateral C. equiangular I have a sense that this is really easy question to answer but I don't get how to.

how you think that will be this poligon - with 4 right angles and 4 equal by length sides ?

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

hint: http://www.mathsisfun.com/quadrilaterals.html

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry for taking so long but wouldn't a equilateral because it has 4 equal sides

Directrix (directrix):

Do you know what each of the options means? That will be important in getting the correct answer. Do you know what these mean is what I am asking: A. regular B. equilateral C. equiangular

I know what regular means and kind of know what equilateral means but equiangular is confusing to me I looked up the meaning but it made no sense

Directrix (directrix):

Equi + Lateral --> Equal Side Lengths Equi + Angular --> Equal Sized Angles.

Directrix (directrix):

That boils down to 4 sides of the same length in your problem and 4 angles of the same size. All that is marked on the diagram. Both those are true.

Directrix (directrix):

What about regular? You mentioned that you read about that. What is a regular polygon?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A polygon is regular when all angles are equal and all sides are equal

Directrix (directrix):

Your polygon has both those features so what is the final answer to the question?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait not c I mean A

Directrix (directrix):

Yes, A) regular Regular means both equiangular and equilateral.

thanks so much
