Polygon Angle-Sum Theorem The sum of the interior angles is: (n – 2)180 Where n is the number of sides See Sketchpad
9
Find the sum of the measure of the angles of a 13-gon ( 13 – 2 ) 180 (11) 180 1980 degrees
10
Find the measure of the missing angle First find the total degrees: (5-2)180 540 Write an equation 117+100+105+115+y=540 Solve 437 + y = 540 y = 103
11
Polygon Exterior Angle-Sum Theorem The sum of the measures of the exterior angles of a polygon, one at each vertex, is 360 See Sketchpad
12
Definitions Equilateral Polygon All Sides congruent Equiangular Polygon All Angles congruent Regular Polygon All Sides and Angles congruent
13
The measure of an exterior angle of a regular polygon is 36 degrees. Find the measure of an interior angle and the number of sides of the polygon
14
Consider the polygon. What do you notice about the interior and exterior angles? They are supplementary The measure of an exterior angle of a regular polygon is 36 degrees. Find the measure of an interior angle and the number of sides of the polygon
15
The sum of an exterior angle and an interior angle is 180. 36 + y = 180 y = 144 The Interior angle measures 144 degrees
16
The measure of an exterior angle of a regular polygon is 36 degrees. Find the measure of an interior angle and the number of sides of the polygon Regular Polygon All angles are congruent Total exterior angles is always 360 360 divided by the angle measure will give the number of sides 360/36 = 10 10 Sides
