Regular and Irregular Polygons: Polygon States
Colorado would probably object if Wyoming enlarged its borders. Scholars use an interactive map to change the borders of U.S. states to see how angles change. They then answer questions about regular and irregular polygons.

Angles in Polygons
Polygons — it's all about the angles. Groups work with dynamic geometry software to find the sum of the measures of the angles of various polygons. After finding the information for several polygons, the groups generate a formula that...
