A regular polygon is a polygon where all the sides are the same length and the angles are the same measurement.
n represents the number of sides in the polygon
Like a triangle has three sides. So for a triangle n = 3
A quadrilateral has four sides. So for a quadrilateral n = 4
Interior angle sum formula
Single regular polygon interior angle formula
Exterior angle sum (exterior angles always add up to the same number, 360°)
Single regular polygon exterior angle formula


quadrilateral has 4 sides. So plugging into the formula.
(4-2) • 180
Find the value of x.
This is a quadrilateral. 4 sides.
So first
(4-2)•180
equals 360°.
So the 4 angles add up to 360.
x+(2x+5)+x+(2x+7) = 360
Then solve for x.
This is a quadrilateral. The 4 angles add up to 360.
Solve for x.
From the value of x that you had from the previous problem now find the measurement of angle K.
This is a pentagon.
(5-2)•180
540°
So in a pentagon the 5 angles add up to 540°
90°+(2x+10)°+x°+(2x-20)°+90°=540°
Solve for x.
This is a pentagon. The 5 angles add up to 540°
Find the value of x.
From the value of x that you had from the previous problem now find the measurement of angle Z.
These are exterior angles. Remember that the exterior angles always add up to 360°.
So
2x+88+x+10+x+2+52=360
Solve for x.
Solve for x.
Find the sum of the measures of the angles of a nonagon. (9 sides)
(n-2) • 180
(9-2) • 180
Find the sum of the measures of the angles of a heptagon. (7 sides)
(n-2) • 180
Find the measure of each interior angle of a regular quadrilateral.
n = 4
Here is the formula for this
So plugging in 4 for n.
Find the measure of each interior angle of a regular pentagon.
n = 5
Here is the formula for this
Find the measure of each angle of a regular octagon.
n = 8
So plugging in 8 for n
Find the measure of each angle of a regular nonagon.
n = 9
