A pentagon is a five-sided polygon with five angles. Here are the key parts and properties of a pentagon: (1) Sides (Edges): A pentagon has five sides. Each side is a straight line segment that connects two adjacent vertices. In a regular pentagon, all sides are of equal length. In an irregular pentagon, the lengths […]

The word “octagon” comes from the Greek words “okto,” meaning eight, and “gonia,” meaning angle. Here are some key characteristics of an octagon. Definition: An octagon is a polygon with […]
Read More →Lines of symmetry in a regular Square A shape may have more than one line of symmetry depending on its angles and the lengths of each side. For example, a rectangle has two lines of symmetry because it can be folded in half both horizontally and vertically to create mirror images. A regular square is […]

Perimeter comes from the Greek words ‘Peri’ meaning surrounding or inclosing of a surface and ‘Meter’ meaning distance. So perimeter means total measurement of boundaries of a surface. Definition: The Perimeter of a square is the distance (total of length) covered by […]

Volume is measured in cubic unit. The volume of a cube with sides […]
Read More →Similar Polygons Two polygons are similar if they have same shape, but not the same size. Similar polygons are polygons, if their corresponding angles are congruent, and the measure of their corresponding sides are proportional. The ratio of length of their corresponding sides are all in a constant ratio, and their corresponding angles are equal. […]

Read More →Congruent Figures In our daily life we see many congruent objects like as, (i) Two 2 Rupees, 5 Rupees, or 10 Rupees coins. (ii) Two text books of mathematics of same class. Two figures or objects are called congruent, when one object cover the other completely and exactly. This means that two books or coins […]
