The document provides instructions for drawing regular polygons. It instructs the reader to first draw 5 circles and label them for an equilateral triangle, square, pentagon, hexagon, and octagon. It then explains how to calculate the size of the angles for each polygon using the example of an equilateral triangle. Finally, it tells the reader to use a protractor to mark the angles on each shape and then connect the marks with straight lines using a ruler to complete the regular polygons.
