Angles of Regular Polygons
Sum of the Interior Angles 180(n – 2) Sum of the Exterior Angles Always 360! 180(n – 2) Each Interior Angle n Each Exterior Angle 360 n
13
What is the measure of each angle?
Find the sum of the measures of the interior angles of a regular dodecagon. n = 12 180•(n – 2) = 180•(12 – 2) = 180•(10) all 12 angles = 1800 What is the measure of each angle? 1800 each angle = 150 12
14
The sum of the interior angles of a convex polygon is 1440.
How many sides does the polygon have? 180•(n – 2) = 1440 180n – 360 = 1440 180n = 1800 n = 10 10 sides
15
Exterior Angles What is the measure of each exterior angle of a regular hexagon? 6 sides 360 = 60 6
16
The measure of each exterior angle of a regular polygon is 20
The measure of each exterior angle of a regular polygon is 20. How many sides does it have? 360 = 18 20 The measure of each interior angle of a regular polygon is 120. How many sides does it have? = 60 360 = 6 60 exterior angle
