How can you calculate the Interior and Exterior angles Interior Angle Exterior Angle How can you calculate the Interior and Exterior angles when all you know are the number of sides of this regular Pentagon?
Exterior angle = Middle angle = 360 ÷ 5 = 72o Interior Angle Exterior Angle 54o 72o 54o 108o 72o 54o Middle angle =360 ÷ 5 = 72o Interior angle = 180 – 72 = 108o Exterior angle = Middle angle = 360 ÷ 5 = 72o
Your task is to find the size of the Exterior and Interior angles of all these Polygons Heptagon Hexagon Octagon Decagon Nonagon
Exterior and Interior angles of Polygons Hexagon Heptagon Interior angle = 128.6o Exterior angle = 51.4o Interior angle = 120o Exterior angle = 60o Octagon Nonagon Interior angle = 135o Exterior angle = 45o Decagon Interior angle = 140o Exterior angle = 40o Interior angle = 144o Exterior angle = 36o
