Base of a Polygon

Introduction to base of polygon:

Let us discuss the base of polygon. The base of the polygon is declaring the lowest part. The base is commonly known as bottom line of the shape. Solid objects are placed on a plane by the bottom line of the surface. The straight side shape is called  the base of a polygon. Next we see the polygon base. For example in triangle we take one of the sides as base (from three sides). Similarly in square we take one of the sides of a base (from four sides).

Base of the Polygon

The two dimensional polygons are any side can be declare a base. There is the polygon “sits” bottom side is normally known as the base. The triangle is also known as the polygon. The three side polygon called as the triangles. We can say any side of triangle is base of the triangle. The all type of triangle contains three bases. The following diagram is representing the base of the polygons.

`Base = (2A)/(h)`           

The formula for the base of the triangle polygon is b = 2A / h. The b is representing the base of   the triangle. A is represent the area of the triangle. The h is representing the height of the triangle. Next we see the base of rectangle.

The rectangle is another part of the polygons. The rectangle polygons is represented the four sides. The base of the rectangle is declaring the bottom side of the diagram. The general formula for base of rectangle is b = A / h. the b is represents the base of the rectangle polygon. The A is represents the area of the rectangle polygon. The h is represents the height of the polygons.

`Base = (A)/(h)`

I am planning to write more post on How to Construct a Triangle, Properties of Quadrilaterals. Keep checking my blog.

Other Polygon Base

The next polygon declares the parallelogram. The side of the parallelogram is four. The base of the parallelogram is specifying the bottom side of the diagram. The general formula for base of parallelogram is b = A / h. the b is represents the base of the parallelogram polygon. The A is represents the area of the parallelogram polygon. The h is represents the height of the parallelogram polygons.

`Base = (A)/(h)`
