Exploring Polygons: Regular, Irregular, Convex, and Concave

This video tutorial introduces polygons, explaining their characteristics and differentiating between regular and irregular polygons. It also covers the concepts of convex and concave polygons, providing examples and criteria for each type. The lesson aims to help viewers identify and understand different types of polygons and their properties.
