This program calculate the polygon's signed area. The result is negative if the polygon is oriented clockwise. See the HowTo Calculate a polygon's area for information on finding a polygon's signed area.

' Return True if the polygon is oriented clockwise.
Public Function PolygonIsOrientedClockwise() As Boolean
PolygonIsOrientedClockwise = SignedPolygonArea() < 0
End Function
