In a polygon with n sides, the number of diagonals that can be drawn from one vertex is given by the formula (n-3). Therefore, in a 35-sided polygon, you can draw (35-3) = 32 diagonals from one vertex.
If all of the diagonals are drawn from a vertex of an octagon, how many triangles are formed
By drawing all the diagonals from one vertex, the polygon is divided up into triangles. The sum of the interior angles of the polygon is equal to the sum of the internal angles in the triangles. With n vertices, each vertex is not directly connected to n-3 other vertices, thus n-3 diagonals can be drawn from a vertex which will create n-2 triangles (each with the sum of their interior angles as 180o); so: sum_of_interior_angles = 180 x (number_of_sides - 2)
In a 54-sided polygon, 53 possible diagonals can be drawn from one vertex to another. These diagonals will not intersect. Therefore, the interior will be divided into 54 regions by the 53 diagonals plus the two sides of the original polygon that adjoin the vertex from which the diagonals are drawn.
Two triangles can be formed by the diagonals of one vertex of a four-sided polygon.

It is: 8-2 = 6 triangles
Number of sides minus 2 equals the number of triangles within the polygon.
In a polygon with n sides, the number of diagonals that can be drawn from one vertex is given by the formula (n-3). Therefore, in a 35-sided polygon, you can draw (35-3) = 32 diagonals from one vertex.
