Curve: A curve is a figure that can be drawn without lifting the pencil from the paper.
a) Open Curve: An open curve has its different starting and ending points, and is also

drawn without lifting the pencil from the paper. Example:

b) Closed Curve: A closed curve has its starting and ending points the same, and is also
drawn without lifting the pencil from the paper. Example:

c) Simple Curve: A curve which does not cross itself. E.g.


A polygon is a simple, closed curve made up of only straight-line segments. The line segments are
called sides, and the points at which the sides meet are called vertices.
 Polygons with all sides equal and all angles equal are regular polygons.
 Classification of Polygons According to Number of Sides

Number of Sides Name

3 Triangle

4 Quadrilateral

5 Pentagon

6 Hexagon

7 Heptagon

8 Octagon

9 Nonagon

10 Decagon
 A circle is a set of points in a plane, each of which is the same distance from a fixed point (called
the center).
 A segment joining the center and an endpoint on the circle is called a radius (plural: radii).
 A segment with endpoints on the circle is called a chord.
 A segment passing through the center, with endpoints on the circle, is called a diameter. A
diameter divides a circle into two equal semicircles.
 A sector is the part of a circle enclosed by two radii of a circle and their intercepted arc. The
segment of a circle is the region bounded by a chord and the arc subtended by the chord.
