Regular & Irregular Polygons

The video tutorial explains the concept of polygons, focusing on the differences between regular and irregular polygons. Regular polygons have equal sides and angles, while irregular polygons do not. The tutorial includes an exercise to identify regular and irregular polygons, using examples such as triangles, pentagons, hexagons, octagons, rhombuses, and rectangles. The lesson concludes with a summary of how to identify the characteristics of regular polygons.
