The maximum number of right angles in a polygon is determined by the formula (n-2), where n represents the number of sides in the polygon. A polygon with n sides can have a maximum of (n-3) right angles, as the sum of interior angles in a polygon is given by (n-2) * 180 degrees. Since a right angle measures 90 degrees, the maximum number of right angles in a polygon is limited by the total number of interior angles.

Oh, dude, the maximum number of right angles in a polygon is directly related to the number of sides it has. So, for a triangle, you can have a maximum of one right angle, for a quadrilateral (like a square), you can have a maximum of two right angles, and so on. It's like a right angle party, but don't invite too many or it might get too square.

Yes, there is a limit, 1 for a triangle, 4 for a quadrilateral, 3 for a pentagon, 5 for an hexagon and for a heptagon, 6 for an octagon, etc. Should be a formula for this.
