Interior and Exterior angles

Front

What is an interior angle?

Back

An interior angle is the angle formed between two sides of a polygon that meet at a vertex, located inside the polygon.

Front

What is an exterior angle?

Back

An exterior angle is the angle formed between one side of a polygon and the extension of an adjacent side, located outside the polygon.

Front

How do you calculate the sum of the interior angles of a polygon?

Back

The sum of the interior angles of a polygon can be calculated using the formula: (n - 2) × 180 degrees, where n is the number of sides.

Front

If a polygon has 5 sides, what is the sum of its interior angles?

Back

The sum of the interior angles of a 5-sided polygon (pentagon) is (5 - 2) × 180 = 540 degrees.

Front

What is the measure of each interior angle in a regular hexagon?

Back

In a regular hexagon, each interior angle measures 120 degrees.

Front

What is the measure of each exterior angle in a regular polygon?

Back

The measure of each exterior angle in a regular polygon can be calculated using the formula: 360 degrees / n, where n is the number of sides.

Front

If one exterior angle of a polygon is 30 degrees, how many sides does the polygon have?

Back

If one exterior angle is 30 degrees, the polygon has 360 / 30 = 12 sides.

Front

What is the formula for finding the measure of an interior angle of a regular polygon?

Back

The measure of an interior angle of a regular polygon can be found using the formula: ((n - 2) × 180) / n, where n is the number of sides.
