Question 12 Marks

What is the sum of all interior angles of a regular:
Hexagon.

Answer

Sum of the interior angles of an n-sided polygon = (n - 2) × 180º,
For a hexagon:
$\text{n}=6$
$\therefore(\text{n}-2)\times180^\circ=(6-2)\times180^\circ=4\times180^\circ=720^\circ$

Answer

Exterior angle of an n-sided polygon $=\Big(\frac{360}{\text{n}}\Big)^\circ$
For a decagon:
$\text{n}=10$
$\therefore\Big(\frac{360}{\text{n}}\Big)=\Big(\frac{360}{\text{10}}\Big)=36^\circ$

Question 62 Marks

Find the measure of each interior angle of a regular polygon having:
10 sides.

Answer

For a regular polygon with n sides:
each interior angle = 180 - {Each exterior angle} $=180-\Big(\frac{360}{\text{n}}\Big) $
For a polygon with 10 sides:
Each exterior angle $=\frac{360}{10}=36^\circ$
⇒ Each interior angle = 180 - 36 = 144º

Question 72 Marks

What is the number of diagonals in a:
Heptagon.

Answer

Number of diagonal in an n-sided polygon $=\frac{\text{n}(\text{n}-3)}{2}$
For a heptagon:
$\text{n}=7\Rightarrow\frac{\text{n}(\text{n}-3)}{2}=\frac{7(7-3)}{2}=\frac{28}{2}=14$

Question 82 Marks

What is the sum of all interior angles of a regular:
Nonagon.

Answer

Sum of the interior angles of an n-sided polygon = (n - 2) × 180º,
For a nonagon:
$\text{n}=9$
$\therefore(\text{n}-2)\times180^\circ=(9-2)\times180^\circ=7\times180^\circ=1260^\circ$

Question 102 Marks

Find the measure of each exterior angle of a regular:
Heptagon.

Answer

Exterior angle of an n-sided polygon $=\Big(\frac{360}{\text{n}}\Big)^\circ$
For a heptagon:
$\text{n}=7$
$\therefore\Big(\frac{360}{\text{n}}\Big)=\Big(\frac{360}{\text{7}}\Big)=51.43^\circ$

Find the measure of each exterior angle of a regular:
Hexagon.

Answer

Exterior angle of an n-sided polygon $=\Big(\frac{360}{\text{n}}\Big)^\circ$
For a hexagon:
$\text{n}=6$
$\therefore\Big(\frac{360}{\text{n}}\Big)=\Big(\frac{360}{\text{5}}\Big)=60^\circ$

Question 122 Marks

Find the measure of each interior angle of a regular polygon having:
15 sides.

Answer

For a regular polygon with n sides:
each interior angle = 180 - {Each exterior angle} $=180-\Big(\frac{360}{\text{n}}\Big) $
For a polygon with 15 sides:
Each exterior angle $=\frac{360}{15}=24^\circ$
⇒ Each interior angle = 180 - 24 = 156º

Question 152 Marks

Is it possible to have a regular polygon each of whose exterior angles is 50°?

Answer

Each exterior angle of an n-sided polygon $=\Big(\frac{360}{\text{n}}\Big)^\circ$
If the exterior angle is 50°, then:
$\frac{360}{\text{n}}=50$
$\Rightarrow\text{n}=7.2$

Question 172 Marks

What is the number of diagonals in a:
Polygon of 12 sides?

Answer

Number of diagonal in an n-sided polygon $=\frac{\text{n}(\text{n}-3)}{2}$
For a 12-sides polygon:
$\text{n}=12\Rightarrow\frac{\text{n}(\text{n}-3)}{2}=\frac{12(12-3)}{2}=\frac{108}{2}=54$

What is the number of diagonals in a:
Octagon.

Answer

Number of diagonal in an n-sided polygon $=\frac{\text{n}(\text{n}-3)}{2}$
For a octagon:
$\text{n}=8\Rightarrow\frac{\text{n}(\text{n}-3)}{2}=\frac{8(8-3)}{2}=\frac{40}{2}=20$

Question 192 Marks

What is the sum of all interior angles of a regular:
Polygon of 12 sides?

Answer

Sum of the interior angles of an n-sided polygon = (n - 2) × 180º,
For a polygon of 12 sides:
