A five-sided polygon is called a pentagon.
A regular polygon has equal lengths of each side, AND the same angle between each of the sides. A Square is a polygon, an equilateral triangle is a polygon, a pentagon is a five - sided polygon, and so on.
360 ÷ 72 = 5, so that the regular polygon is a pentagon (a five-sided polygon).
Interior + Exterior = 180 and Interior = 5*Exterior So interior = 150 degrees and exterior = 30 degrees. Nothing more may be said unless it is known that the polygon is regular.
A pentagon is a 5 sided polygon.
A five sided polygon is called a pentagon because pentagon means five sided polygon I think.
360/5 = 72 degrees
A five-sided polygon is called a pentagon. A regular five-sided polygon is simply called a regular pentagon
Five sided polygon is pentagon
A five-sided polygon is called a pentagon.
This is not possible for a normal regular polygon. (A regular polygon has all equal angles and all equal sides. A normal polygon has no intersecting edges.)The smallest regular polygon is an equilateral triangle (a three sided polygon), whose exterior angle measure is twice the measure of its interior angle. A four-sided polygon (a square) has equal interior and exterior angle measures of 90⁰. Starting from a five-sided polygon, the exterior angle measure is smaller than the interior angle measure.Let's assume that the given information is true. So we need to verify it.Let's say that the interior angle of the regular polygon has a measure of x degrees, and the measure of the exterior angle of that polygon is 4x degrees.Since the sum of the interior and the exterior angles of the polygon is 180 degrees (a straight line), the interior angle is 36 degrees.4x + x = 1805x = 1805x/5 = 180/5x = 36The sum of the angles of a polygon = 180⁰(n - 2), where n is the number of the sides of the polygon.The measure of one of the angles of a polygon = 180⁰(n - 2)/n. Substituting the angle measure of 36⁰ into this formula, we have:36⁰ = 180⁰(n - 2)/n (multiply by n to both sides)36⁰n = 180⁰(n - 2)36⁰n = 180⁰n - 360⁰ (add 360⁰ and subtract 36⁰n to both sides)360⁰ = 144⁰n (divide by 144⁰ to both sides)2.5 = n !!That means that a such normal polygon does not exist.
A regular polygon has equal lengths of each side, AND the same angle between each of the sides. A Square is a polygon, an equilateral triangle is a polygon, a pentagon is a five - sided polygon, and so on.
That's true if the interior angles are 108 degrees, but a regular polygon cannot have exterior angles of 108 degrees.
360 ÷ 72 = 5, so that the regular polygon is a pentagon (a five-sided polygon).
A pentagon and a quadrilateral, respectively.
Interior + Exterior = 180 and Interior = 5*Exterior So interior = 150 degrees and exterior = 30 degrees. Nothing more may be said unless it is known that the polygon is regular.
The name of a 5 sided polygon is Pentagon.
