The interior angles of any n-sided polygon always total (2n - 4) right angles or 180n - 360 degrees. In this instance (180n - 360)/n = 172 ie 180n - 360 = 172n which simplifies to 8n = 360 so there are 360/8 ie 45 sides to your polygon.
Another method is based on the fact that the exterior angles are 360/n degrees. In this case 360/n = 8 (ie 180 - 172) so n = 45.
Any polygon can have two interior angles of 12 degrees. No polygon can have all its interior angles of 12 degrees.
Yes. The interior angles of a polygon add up to 360°.
Interior angles of n-sided polygon total (2n - 4) right angles or 180n - 360 degrees.
Interior angles of n-sided polygon total (2n - 4) right angles or 180n - 360 degrees.
(number of sides-2)*180 = sum of interior angles of a polygon
7740 degrees
The easiest way to solve this is to use the exterior angles of the polygon. The sum of an exterior angle and interior angle is 180o. Also the sum of all the exterior angles of a polygon is 360o. As the polygon is regular, all the interior angles are the same and all the exterior angles are the same. So, for an interior angle of 172o the exterior angle is 180-172 = 8o. The sum of all the exterior angles is 360o so how many 8o make up 360o? 360/8=45. Thus the polygon with interior angles of 172o has 45 sides.
No. If the interior angle is 8 degrees then each exterior angle must be 172 degrees. Therefore the polygon must have 360/172 approx 2.1 sides. A fractional side is not possible.
A polygon with all interior angles congruent Is known as a regular polygon.
If all of its interior angles are equal then it is a regular polygon
Any polygon can have two interior angles of 12 degrees. No polygon can have all its interior angles of 12 degrees.
Yes. The interior angles of a polygon add up to 360°.
The smallest regular polygon, an equilateral triangle, has interior angles of 60. A square has interior angles of 90. There can't exist a regular polygon with interior angles of 30.
Interior angles of n-sided polygon total (2n - 4) right angles or 180n - 360 degrees.
Interior angles of n-sided polygon total (2n - 4) right angles or 180n - 360 degrees.
No. In a convex polygon the sum of the interior angles is (n-2)*180 deg where n is the number of interior angles. In a non-convex polygon this is not necessarily true.
The angles between adjacent sides of a polygon that are interior to the polygon. If the polygon is convex, the interior angles are always less than 180 degrees. If it is concave, at least one interior angle will be greater than 180 degrees.
