As the number of sides in a regular polygon increases what happens to the measure of an interior angle?
As the number of sides in a regular polygon increases, the angle increases. This occurs as a function where each interior angle measures (180*(n-2)) / n, where n is the number of sides.
As the number of sides increases how do the angles change?
When the sides of a regular polygon increases its interior angles also increases
What do you call a 1000000000000 sided polygon?
There is no name given to it. (As the number of sides increases, the upper limit of a regular polygon is a circle.)
How many sides does the polygon have?
A polygon does not have a set number of sides.
Which regular polygon has interior angles with the greatest sum?
The one with the greatest number of sides, and that's a number that's impossible to specify. In the limit, as the number of sides increases without bounds, a regular polygon tends toward becoming a circle. Also by the way ... the sum of the interior angles depends only on the number of sides, regardless of a polygon's regularity.

As the number of sides in a regular polygon increases, the angle increases. This occurs as a function where each interior angle measures (180*(n-2)) / n, where n is the number of sides.
As the number of sides of a regular polygon increases what happens to the measure of one central angles?
it will decrease
What happens to the area of the segments between the circle and new polygon when the number of sides increases?
The areas decrease in size to a limiting value of zero - ie as the number of sides of the polygon increases it comes closer and closer to the circle.
When the number of sides of a regular polygon increases what happens to the size of each exterior angle of the polygon?
Each external angle is equal to 360/n degrees where n is the number of sides (or angles) of the polygon. So the external angle is inversely proportional to the number of sides.
As the number of sides increases how do the angles change?
When the sides of a regular polygon increases its interior angles also increases
What do you call a infinty sided polygon?
There is no such thing. I would say that a polygon, by definition, has a finite number of sides. That being said, as the number of sides in a REGULAR polygon increases, it becomes more and more similar to a circle.
How many sides does the largest polygon have?
There is no mathematical limit to the number of sides that a polygon can have. As the number of sides increases the polygon will become more and more like a closed curve - a regular polygon will become like a circle. The size of the polygon and accuracy of measurement will determine when it is no longer possible to distinguish between the polygon and the curve. Nevertheless, the two shapes will be mathematically different objects.
What do you call a 1000000000000 sided polygon?
There is no name given to it. (As the number of sides increases, the upper limit of a regular polygon is a circle.)
How does the Number of sides of a polygon affect the total of internal angles?
The addition of an extra side increases the total of the internal angles by 180° The sum of the internal angles of a polygon = (number of sides - 2) × 180°
What is the polygon that has the most number of sides?
Technically, a polygon can have an unlimited number of sides.
What happens to the exterior angles on a polygon as the number of sides increase?
The exterior angles get smaller
How many sides does the polygon have?
A polygon does not have a set number of sides.
