A person who plans, designs and oversees
the construction of buildings.

You will then choose one polygon that you used and describe it.

Shape Selfie! First, I know my shape is a
trapezoid.

Next, I know my shape is a polygon

because it has straight line segments
and is a closed shape.

Lastly, I know my polygon has 4

sides and 4 angles.
