INTRODUCTION
In geometry a polygon is a flat shape consisting of straight lines that are joined to form a
closed chain or circuit.
A polygon is traditionally a plane figure that is bounded by a closed path, composed of a
finite sequence of straight line segments (i.e., by a closed polygonal chain). These segments are
called its edges or sides, and the points where two edges meet are the polygon's vertices
(singular: vertex) or corners. An n-gon is a polygon with n sides. The interior of the polygon is
sometimes called its body. A polygon is a 2-dimensional example of the more general polytope
in any number of dimensions.
The word "polygon" derives from the Greek (pols) "much", "many" and
(gna) "corner" or "angle". (The word gnu, with a short o, is unrelated and means
"knee".) Today a polygon is more usually understood in terms of sides.
The basic geometrical notion has been adapted in various ways to suit particular
purposes. Mathematicians are often concerned only with the closed polygonal chain and with
simple polygons which do not self-intersect, and may define a polygon accordingly.
Geometrically two edges meeting at a corner are required to form an angle that is not straight
(180); otherwise, the line segments will be considered parts of a single edgehowever
mathematically, such corners may sometimes be allowed. In fields relating to computation, the
term polygon has taken on a slightly altered meaning derived from the way the shape is stored
and manipulated in computer graphics (image generation).

HISTORY
Polygons have been known since ancient times. The regular polygons were known to the
ancient Greeks, and the pentagram, a non-convex regular polygon (star polygon), appears on the
vase of Aristophonus, Caere, dated to the 7th century B.C.[citation needed] Non-convex
polygons in general were not systematically studied until the 14th century by Thomas
Bradwardine.
In 1952, Geoffrey Colin Shephard generalized the idea of polygons to the complex plane,
where each real dimension is accompanied by an imaginary one, to create complex polygons.

ANGLES OF POLYGON
Any polygon, regular or irregular, self-intersecting or simple, has as many corners as it
has sides. Each corner has several angles. The two most important ones are:
Interior angle The sum of the interior angles of a simple n-gon is (n2) radians or(n2)180 degrees. This is because any simple n-gon can be considered to be made up of (n 2)
triangles, each of which has an angle sum of radians or 180 degrees. The measure of any
interior angle of a convex regular n-gon is radians or degrees. The interior angles of regular star
polygons were first studied by Poinsot, in the same paper in which he describes the four regular
star polyhedra.
Exterior angle Tracing around a convex n-gon, the angle "turned" at a corner is theexterior or external angle. Tracing all the way around the polygon makes one full turn, so the
sum of the exterior angles must be 360. This argument can be generalized to concave simple
polygons, if external angles that turn in the opposite direction are subtracted from the total
turned. Tracing around an n-gon in general, the sum of the exterior angles (the total amount one
rotates at the vertices) can be any integer multiple d of 360, e.g. 720 for a pentagram and 0
for an angular "eight", where d is the density or starriness of the polygon.
The exterior angle is the supplementary angle to the interior angle. From this the sum of
the interior angles can be easily confirmed, even if some interior angles are more than 180:
going clockwise around, it means that one sometime turns left instead of right, which is counted
as turning a negative amount. (Thus we consider something like the winding number of the
orientation of the sides, where at every vertex the contribution is between 12 and 12 winding.)

POLYGONS IN NATURE
Numerous regular polygons may be seen in nature. In the world of geology, crystals have
flat faces, or facets, which are polygons. Quasicrystals can even have regular pentagons as faces.
Another fascinating example of regular polygons occurs when the cooling of lava forms areas of
tightly packed hexagonal columns of basalt, which may be seen at the Giant's Causeway in
Ireland, or at the Devil's Postpile in California.
The most famous hexagons in nature are found in the animal kingdom. The wax
honeycomb made by bees is an array of hexagons used to store honey and pollen, and as a secure
place for the larvae to grow. There also exist animals who themselves take the approximate form
of regular polygons, or at least have the same symmetry. For example, sea stars display the
symmetry of a pentagon or, less frequently, the heptagon or other polygons. Other echinoderms,
such as sea urchins, sometimes display similar symmetries. Though echinoderms do not exhibit
exact radial symmetry, jellyfish and comb jellies do, usually fourfold or eightfold.
Radial symmetry (and other symmetry) is also widely observed in the plant kingdom,
particularly amongst flowers, and (to a lesser extent) seeds and fruit, the most common form of
such symmetry being pentagonal. A particularly striking example is the star fruit, a slightly tangy
fruit popular in Southeast Asia, whose cross-section is shaped like a pentagonal star.
Moving off the earth into space, early mathematicians doing calculations using Newton's
law of gravitation discovered that if two bodies (such as the sun and the earth) are orbiting one
another, there exist certain points in space, called Lagrangian points, where a smaller body (such
as an asteroid or a space station) will remain in a stable orbit. The sun-earth system has five
Lagrangian points. The two most stable are exactly 60 degrees ahead and behind the earth in its

orbit; that is, joining the center of the sun and the earth and one of these stable Lagrangian points
forms an equilateral triangle. Astronomers have already found asteroids at these points. It is still
debated whether it is practical to keep a space station at the Lagrangian pointalthough it would
never need course corrections, it would have to frequently dodge the asteroids that are already
present there. There are already satellites and space observatories at the less stable Lagrangian
points.

QUESTION (b) Definition and History of Polygons
Polygon is a closed shape consisting of line segments that has at least three sides.
Triangles, quadrilaterals, rectangles, and squares are all types of polygons.
The word "polygon" comes from Late Latin polygnum (a noun), from Greek
(polygnon/polugnon), noun use of neuter of (polygnos/polugnos, the masculine
adjective), meaning "many-angled". Individual polygons are named (and sometimes classified)
according to the number of sides, combining a Greek-derived numerical prefix with the suffix -
gon, e.g. pentagon, dodecagon. The triangle, quadrilateral or quadrangle, and nonagon are
exceptions. For large numbers, mathematicians usually write the numeral itself, e.g. 17-gon. A
variable can even be used, usually n-gon. This is useful if the number of sides is used in a
formula. Some special polygons also have their own names; for example the regular star
pentagon is also known as the pentagram.
Polygons have been known since ancient times. The regular polygons were known to the
ancient Greeks, and the pentagram, a non-convex regular polygon (star polygon), appears on the
vase of Aristophonus, Caere, dated to the 7th century B.C. Non-convex polygons in general were
not systematically studied until the 14th century by Thomas Bredwardine. In 1952, Shephard
generalized the idea of polygons to the complex plane, where each real dimension is
accompanied by an imaginary one, to create complex polygons.

QUESTION (b) (i) Herbs
1.Misai Kucing (Orthosiphon stamineus)Orthosiphon is a medicinal plant native to South East Asia
and some parts of tropical Australia. It is an herbaceous shrub which
grows to a height of 1.5 meters. Orthosiphon is a popular garden
plant because of its unique flower, which is white and bluish with
filaments resembling a cat's whiskers. In the wild, the plant can be
seen growing in the forests and along roadsides.
Common names in Southeast Asia are Misai Kucing
(Malaysia), Kumis Kucing and Remujung (Indonesia), and Yaa Nuat Maeo (Thailand). The
scientific names are Orthosiphon stamineus Benth, Ocimum aristatum BI and Orthosiphon
aristatus (Blume).
Medicinal Uses
Orthosiphon is used for treating the ailments of the kidney, since it has a mild diuretic effect. It is
also claimed to have anti-allergenic, anti-hypertensive and anti-inflammatory properties, and is
commonly used for kidney stones and nephritis. Orthosiphon is sometimes used to treat gout,
diabetes, hypertension and rheumatism. It is reportedly effective for anti-fungal and anti-
bacterial purposes.
How To Cure
In Malaysia, people eat the leaves raw. They take a few leaves, heat them with water to make the
water bitter, and then mix it with tea bags.

Research
Orthosiphon began to interest researchers early in the 20th century, when it was introduced to
Europe as a popular herbal health tea.
Commercial products
Orthosiphon is available in many products treating for detoxification, water retention,
hypertension, obesity or kidney stones. It comes in tablets, capsules, tea sachets, bottled drinks,
raw herbs, dried leaves or extracts.

2.Kacip Fatimah (Labisia Pumila)Kacip fatimah (Labisa pumila) is the female version ofTongkat Ali. Kacip Fatimah is a
small woody and leafy plant that grows and can be
found widely in the shade of forest floors. The leaves
are about 20 centimeters long, and they are
traditionally used as a kind of tea by women who
experience a loss of libido. Despite its long history of
traditional use, the active components and mode of
action have not been well studied, though some preliminary research has been published.
Uses
Extract from these herbs is usually ground into powder substances and are made into capsules
and pills. A concoction made from boiling the plant in water is given to women in labour to
hasten delivery of their babies. After childbirth, it may still be consumed by mothers to regain
their strength. In other medicinal preparations, it can treat gonorrhoea, dysentery and eliminate
excessive gas in the body.
Traditionally, it is used in Borneo for enhancing vitality, overcome tiredness and help to tone
vaginal muscles for women.
The claimed uses of Kacip Fatimah include:
Helps establish a regular menstrual cycle when periods fail to appear for reasons likestress, illness or when the pill is discontinued
Prevents cramping, water retention and irritability for those with painful periods.

3.Tongkat Ali (Eurycoma Longifolia)Eurycoma longifolia (commonly called tongkat ali or pasak
bumi) is a flowering plant in the family Simaroubaceae, native to
Indonesia, Malaysia, and, to a lesser extent, Thailand, Vietnam, and
Laos. It is also known under the names penawar pahit, penawar bias,
bedara merah, bedara putih, lempedu pahit, payong ali, tongkat
baginda, muntah bumi, petala bumi (all the above Malay); bidara laut
(Indonesian); babi kurus (Javanese); cay ba binh (Vietnamese) and tho
nan (Laotian). Many of the common names refer to the plant's medicinal use and extreme
bitterness. "Penawar pahit" translates simply as "bitter charm" or "bitter medicine". Older
literature, such as a 1953 article in the Journal of Ecology, may cite only "penawar pahit" as the
plant's common Malay name.
Growth
Eurycoma longifolia is a small, evergreen tree growing to 15 m (49 ft) tall with spirally
arranged, pinnate leaves 2040 cm (816 inches) long with 1341 leaflets. The flowers are
dioecious, with male and female flowers on different trees; they are produced in large panicles,
each flower with 56 very small petals. The fruit is green ripening dark red, 12 cm long and
0.51 cm broad.
Products
Fake Eurycoma longifolia products have been pulled off the shelves in several countries
but are still sold over the Internet, mostly shipped from the UK.
In a medical journal article, published March 2010, it was noted

that "estimates place the proportion of counterfeit medications sold over the Internet from 44%
to 90%" with remedies for sexual dysfunction accounting for the greatest share. It is therefore
recommended that buyers of Eurycoma longifolia request from Internet vendors conclusive
information, and proof, on the facilities where a product has been manufactured.
In Malaysia, the common use of Eurycoma longifolia as a food and drink additive,
coupled with a wide distribution of products using cheaper synthetic drugs in lieu of Eurycoma
longifolia quassinoids, has led to the invention of an electronic tongue to determine the presence
and concentration of genuine Eurycoma longifolia in products claiming to contain it.
On the other hand, consumers who lack the sophisticated electronic tongue equipment
invented in Malaysia for testing the presence of Eurycoma longifolia, but want more clarity on
whether the product they obtained is indeed Eurycoma longifolia or a fake, can use their own
tongue to taste the content of capsules for the bitterness of the material. Quassinoids, the
biologically active components of Eurycoma longifolia root, are extremely bitter. They are
named afterquassin, the long-isolated bitter principle of the quassia tree. Quassin is regarded the
bitterest substance in nature, 50 times more bitter than quinine. Anything that isn't bitter, and
strongly so, cannot contain quassinoids from Eurycoma longifolia .
In the US, the FDA has banned numerous products such as Libidus, claiming to use
Eurycoma longifolia as principal ingredient, but which instead are concoctions designed around
illegal prescription drugs, or even worse, analogues of prescription drugs that have not even been
tested for safety in humans, such as acetildenafil. In February 2009, the FDA warned against
almost 30 illegal sexual enhancement supplements, but the names of these products change
quicker than the FDA can investigate them. Libidus, for example, is now sold as Maxidus, still

claiming Eurycoma longifolia (tongkat ali) as principal ingredient. The government of Malaysia
has banned numerous fake products which use drugs like sildenafil citrate instead of tongkat ali
in their capsules. To avoid being hurt by bad publicity on one product name, those who sell fake
tongkat ali from Malaysia have resorted to using many different names for their wares. Products
claiming various Eurycoma longifolia extract ratios of 1:20, 1:50, 1:100, and 1:200 are sold.
Traditionally Eurycoma longifolia is extracted with water and not ethanol. However, the use of
selling Eurycoma longifolia extract based on extraction ratio may be confusing and is not easily
verifiable.
In expectation of a competitive edge, some manufacturers are claiming standardization of
their extract based on specific ingredients. Alleged standards / markers are the glycosaponin
content (3545%) and eurycomanone (>2%). While eurycomanone is one of many quassinoids
in Eurycoma longifolia, saponins, known in ethnobotany primarily as fish poison played no role
in the academic research on the plant.
A large number of Malaysian Eurycoma longifolia products (36 out of 100) have been
shown to be contaminated with mercurybeyond legally permitted limits.

1. University of Economics and Business, Vienna
The new Library & Learning Center rises as a polygonal block from the centre of the new
University campus. The LLCs design takes the form of a cube with both inclined and straight
edges. The straight lines of the buildings exterior separate as they move inward, becoming
curvilinear and fluid to generate a free-formed interior canyon that serves as the central public
plaza of the centre. All the other facilities of the LLC are housed within a single volume that also
divides, becoming two separate ribbons that wind around each other to enclose this glazed
gathering space.
The Center comprises a Learning Center with workplaces, lounges and cloakrooms, library, a
language laboratory, training classrooms, administration offices, study services and central
supporting services, copy shop, book shop, data center, cafeteria, event area, clubroom and
auditorium.

2. Pittman Dowell Residence, Los Angeles
The project is a residence for two artists. Located 15 miles north of Los Angeles at the
edge of Angeles forest, the site encompasses 6 acres of land originally planned as a hillside
subdivision of houses designed by Richard Neutra. Three level pads were created but only one
house was built, the 1952 Serulnic Residence. The current owners have over the years developed
an extensive desert garden and outdoor pavilion on one of the unbuilt pads. The new residence,
to be constructed on the last level area, is circumscribed by the sole winding road which ends at
the Serulnic house.
Five decades after the original house was constructed in this remote area, the city has
grown around it and with it the visual and physical context has changed. In a similar way, the
evolving contemporary needs of the artists required a new relationship between building and
landscape that is more urban and contained. Inspired by geometric arrangements of interlocking
polygons, the new residence takes the form of a heptagonal figure whose purity is confounded by
a series of intersecting diagonal slices though space.

3. Casa da Musica, Porto
The Casa da Musica is situated on a travertine plaza, between the city's historic quarter
and a working-class neighborhood, adjacent to the Rotunda da Boavista. The square is no longer
a mere hinge between the old and the new Porto, but becomes a positive encounter of two
different models of the city. The chiseled sculptural form of the white concrete shell houses the
main 1,300 seat concert hall, a small 350 seat hall, rehearsal rooms, and recording studios for the
Oporto National Orchestra.
A terrace carved out of the sloping roofline and huge cut-out in the concrete skin
connects the building to city. Stairs lead from the ground level plaza to the foyer where a second
staircase continues to the Main Hall and the different levels above. Heavy concrete beams criss-
cross the huge light well above. The main auditorium, shaped like a simple shoebox, is enclosed
at both ends by two layers of corrugated glass walls. The glass, corrugated for optimal
acoustics and sheer beauty, brings diffused daylight into the auditorium. The structural heart of
the building is formed by four massive walls that extend from the base to the roof and connect
the tilted external walls with the core of the structure.

CONCLUSION
Polygons tend to be studied in the first few years of school, as an introduction to basic
geometry and mathematics. But after doing research, answering questions, completing table and
some problem solving, I found that the usage of polygons is important in our daily life.
It is not just widely used in fashion design but also in other fields especially in building
of modern structures. The triangle, for instance, is often used in construction because its shape
makes it comparatively strong. The use of the polygon shape reduces the quantity of materials
needed to make a structure, so essentially reduces costs and maximizes profits in a business
environment. Another polygon is the rectangle. The rectangle is used in a number of applications,
due to the fact our field of vision broadly consists of a rectangle shape. For instance, most
televisions are rectangles to allow for easy and comfortable viewing. The same can be said for
photo frames and mobile phones screens.
In conclusion, polygon is a daily life necessity. Without it, mans creativity will be
limited. Therefore, we should be thankful of the people who contribute in the idea of polygon.

REFLECTION
While I conducting this project, a lot of information that I found. I have learnt how
polygons appear in our daily life.
Apart from that, this project encourages the student to work together and share
their knowledge. It is also encourage student to gather information from the internet, improve
thinking skills and promote effective mathematical communication.
Not only that, I had learned some moral values that I practice. This project had taught me
to responsible on the works that are given to me to be completed. This project also had made me
felt more confidence to do works and not to give easily when we could not find the solution for
the question. I also learned to be more discipline on time, which I was given about a month to
complete this project and pass up to my teacher just in time. I also enjoy doing this project I
spend my time with friends to complete this project and it had tighten our friendship.
Last but not least, I proposed this project should be continue because it brings a lot
of moral value to the student and also test the students understanding in Additional Mathematics.
