Why are triangles the only polygon explicitly named for how many angles are in it instead of how many sides?
Have you asked the fighters in the Octagon or the Pentagon? Or did someone put a "Hex" on your thinking stop sign?
Best I can tell, all regular polygons have the same number of sides and interior angles

Why do triangles angles add up to 180 instead of 270?
Because of the formula: (n-2)*180 = total sum of interior angles where n is the number of sides of the polygon.
Polygon what is it?
Triangles, rectangles and octagons are all examples of a polygon. A polygon is a polygon whose sides are the same length and whose interior angles are the same measure
The sum of all angles inside a polygon?
there r 800 vetices in three triangles
How many triangles does a 1002 sided polygon have?
Any n-sided polygon (n being any integer) will always have a minimum of n-2 triangles inside the shape, assuming that the polygon is regular with no reflex angles.
Does a polygon usally have more sides or more angles?
Not that I know of, an octagon has eight sides and eight angles. Triangles have three of each, as well as hexagons. Based on that information, I'm pretty sure it's the same case with any polygon.
