MATHEMATICS │ Third Quarter – Geometry │ Week 5

Objectives:
1. Derives inductively the relationship of exterior and interior angles of a convex polygon.
A. RELATIONSHIPS OF INTERIOR and EXTERIOR ANGLES OF A CONVEX POLYGON
Let’s Explore! Get a piece of paper and follow the steps below!
1. Draw a triangle and place numbers 2. Carefully tear the three angles 3. Put the pieces together by
1, 2, and 3 inside each angle as from the triangle as shown below. arranging them as shown below.
shown below. Then cut the triangle.

Great! Now answer the following questions: Answers:


a) After putting the pieces together, what do they look like? ________________________________
180° angle
b) What can you conclude about m∠1 + m∠2 + m∠3? m ∠ 1+ m∠ 2+m ∠ 3=180 °
________________________________
c) Draw and cut a right triangle. Tear the angles and rearrange them as what you
did in the first triangle. Is your answer in letter c the same? Explain your answer. ________________________________
Yes. It forms a straight angle.
d) What can you say about the sum of interior angles of a triangle? ________________________________
The sum of the interior angle of a triangle is
equal to 180°
Let’s Investigate!
3 sides
4 sides

5 sides 6 sides

Can you see a pattern? What conclusion can you make on the sum of the interior and exterior angles of a polygon?

Triangle = (n-2)180°
= (3-2)180°
3 1 360°
= (1)180°
=180°
Quadrilateral = (n-2)180°
= (4-2)180°
