    The document discusses polygons and formulas for calculating the sum of interior and exterior angles of polygons. It defines a polygon as a plane shape bounded by straight lines, and a regular polygon as having all sides the same length and all angles the same size. It provides formulas for calculating the sum of interior angles of polygons with n sides as (n-2)×180 degrees and the exterior angle of a regular polygon with n sides as 180/n degrees.

    Sum of the Angles of A Polygon

    A polygon is a plane shape bounded by straight lines e.g. triangle, quadrilateral, pentagon. A
    regular polygon has all its sides the same length and all its angles the same size.

    If you pick any point inside a polygon then you can draw
    lines from all the corners of the figure to make triangles.
    In calculating the sum of the interior angles of a polygon
    you will multiply the number of triangles by 180

    An interior angle is one inside a polygon.

    Name of Number Sum of interior angles of the


    polygon of sides polygon
    Triangle 3 1 x 180 = 180

    Quadrilateral 4 2 x 180 = 360

    Pentagon 5

    Hexagon 6

    Heptagon 7

    Octagon 8

    Exterior angle.
    Notice that the interior
    angle + exterior angle
    = 180
