Angle Sum Property of Polygons
Angle Sum Property of Polygons
Sum of interior angles of a polygon can be found by using the following rule
Angle Sum Property for a polygon with n number of sides:
If there is a polygon of n sides where n>=3, then we can cut it into n-2 triangles with a common vertex. For example if we have a polygon with five sides that is a pentagon then we can divide it into 5-2= 3 triangle from a common vertex as shown below
Now we know that sum of angle of a triangle is 1800and a pentagon can be divided into 3 triangles
So the sum of interior angles of a triangle is 3 X 1800= 5400
So in general we can say that sum of interior angle of n sides polygon= (n-2) X 1800
Regular Polygon:
A regular polygon is a polygon which has sides of equal length and all interior angles are also equal. So if there is a regular polygon of n sides where n>= 3 then its each interior angle
Illustration: Find the sum of interior angles of a ten sides polygon.
Solution:The given polygon has 10 sides
The formula to find the sum of interior angles is = (n-2) X 1800 Where n is the number of sides of the polygon
It is given that n = 10
So sum of interior angles is
= (n-2) X 1800
= (10-2) X 1800
= 8 X 1800
= 14400
Hence the sum of interior angles of a 10 sided polygon is 14400.
Illustration: How many sides does a regular polygon has if its each angle is a measure of 1080?
Solution:Let us suppose the polygon has n sides
Then each interior angle is given by the formula
According to the question each interior angle is = 1080
Hence the regular polygon has 5 sides

7thWhen I have not joined Abhyas Academy, my skills of solving maths problems were not clear. But, after joining it, my skills have been developed and my concepts of science and SST are very well. I also came to know about other subjects such as vedic maths and reasoning.

7thMy experience with Abhyas Academy has been very good. When I was not in Abhyas whenever teacher ask questions I could not speak it confidently but when I came in Abhyas, my speaking skills developed and now I am the first one to give the answer of teachers question.
