Learning Goal
Part of: Geometric Construction — 3 of 4 topic items
Polygons: Properties, Construction, and Angle Sums
**Learning Outcome**: The learner recognises and constructs lines, angles and geometric figures.
**Subject Competences** (relevant to this lesson): "Constructs simple polygons"; "States properties of regular polygons and solids"; "Applies the formulae for exterior and interior angle sum of polygons"
**Language Competences**: "States properties of regular polygons"
**Content**: "Simple polygons"; "Regular polygons"
**Suggested Activities** (relevant): "Constructing simple triangles, quadrilaterals, pentagons and hexagons using a pair of compasses and a ruler"; "Stating the properties of regular polygons"; "Working out angle sum of interior and exterior angles of regular polygons"
**Guidance to the Teacher**: "Use models to illustrate different solids. Give various geometric terms using many physical examples which are familiar to learners. Encourage learners to use standard geometric instruments and correct language."
**Suggested Competences for Assessment** (relevant): "Constructs various angles, polygons and circles"; "Finds interior and exterior angle sums of polygons"
