Find the meaaure of each interior angle of a regular polygon of 10 sides whise sum of the measure of of the interoir angle is 1250 degree
Answers
Answer:
The sum of the exterior angles of any regular or irregular polygon, irrespective of the number of sides is 360 degrees.
So each of the exterior angles of a regular 10-sided polygon = 360/10 or 36 deg. Also each of the sides will subtend an angle of 36 deg at the center of the figure. Each interior angle will be 180–36 = 144 deg.
Alternatively, the sum of the interior angles of a regular 10-sided polygon = (n-2)*180 = (10–2)*180 = 8*180 = 1440, so each interior angle = 1440/10 = 144 deg.
Answer:
interior angles in a triangle add up to 180° ...
... and for the square they add up to 360° ...
... because the square can be made from two triangles!
Pentagon
interior angles pentagon
A pentagon has 5 sides, and can be made from three triangles, so you know what ...
... its interior angles add up to 3 × 180° = 540°
And when it is regular (all angles the same), then each angle is 540° / 5 = 108°
(Exercise: make sure each triangle here adds up to 180°, and check that the pentagon's interior angles add up to 540°)
