Answer:
The interior angles sum for an n-gon (n-sided polygon) is (n-2)(180°).
(n-2)(180°)=3(150°)+k(45°)
The number of sides (n) = 3+k, because there are three 150° angles, and “k” 45° angles.
n = 3+k → subtract 3 on both sides of = here to solve for k in terms of n….
k = n-3
So replace the “k” in the first equation with “(n-3).”
(n-2)(180°) = 3(150°) + (n-3)(45°)
(180n -360)° = 450° + (45n - 135)°
Subtract 45n from both sides, add 360 to both sides, and combine remaining like terms.
(135n)°= (675)°
divide both sides by 135
n= 675÷135 = 5
It’s a 5-gon, a.k.a. a pentagon.
So, it has 5 sides.
