Why do you subtract 2 when calculating the interior degrees of a 24 sided polygon?

Basically when you have a 24 sided polygon you can split it up into 22 separate, non-overlapping triangles by drawing diagonals. Each triangle has 180 degrees, so the product, 22 times 180, gives you the sum of the interior angles of the 24 sided polygon.

What is the formula for finding the measure of an interior angle in a regular polygon?
The exterior angles of any polygon add up to 360 degrees. So divide the amount of sides into 360 degrees and subtract your answer from 180 degrees to find the interior angle (180 degrees on a straight line)
Are there 300 degrees in the sum of the interior angles of a polygon?
No - the interior angles of a polygon must total at least 360 degrees.
What are the interior angles of a polygon equal to?
The formula for calculating the TOTAL of the interior angles of an n-sided polygon is: Angle Sum = 180 (n-2) degrees *For a regular convex polygon, each of the identical interior angles will be 180(n-2)/n This will also be 180 - (360/n), supplementary to the exterior angle.
What polygon has interior of 5040 degrees?
A 30 sided polygon
What measure of the interior angles of a polygon is 720 degrees?
If it's a regular polygon then each interior angle measures 120 degrees.

How many sides does a regular polygon if its interior angles are 270?
No regular polygon can have an interior angle of 180 degrees or more. No regular polygon can have an interior angle of 180 degrees or more. No regular polygon can have an interior angle of 180 degrees or more. No regular polygon can have an interior angle of 180 degrees or more.
How do you calculate the angle sum of a 9-side polygon?
The formula for calculating the interior angles for any polygon is:- (number of sides -2)*180 = sum of interior angles So: (9 -2)*180 = 1260 degrees
How many sides does a polygon have with angles of 12 degrees?
Any polygon can have two interior angles of 12 degrees. No polygon can have all its interior angles of 12 degrees.
What polygon has an interior angle of 144 degrees?
Any polygon can have an interior angle of 144 degrees. The measurement of an interior angle of a decagon is 144 degrees.
Is There 250 degrees in the sum of the interior angles of a polygon.?
There is no such polygon whose interior angles add up to 250 degrees.
Are there 300 degrees in the sum of the interior angles of a polygon?
No - the interior angles of a polygon must total at least 360 degrees.
What is the Interior angle of a polygon with 15 sides?
The interior angles of a 15 sided polygon add up to 2340 degrees and if it is a regular polygon then each interior angle is 156 degrees.
What are the interior angles of a polygon equal to?
The formula for calculating the TOTAL of the interior angles of an n-sided polygon is: Angle Sum = 180 (n-2) degrees *For a regular convex polygon, each of the identical interior angles will be 180(n-2)/n This will also be 180 - (360/n), supplementary to the exterior angle.
How many sides does a polygon have if the interior angles equal 180 degrees?
If all of the interior angles of the polygon add up to 180 degrees, then the polygon is a triangle.
