6.1 Properties and Attributes of Polygons
Polygon Vocab • POLYGON: • Diagonal: • Concave Polygons: • Convex polygons: • Regular polygon:
Sum interior angles = (n – 2)•180º Ex 1: Find the sum of the measures of interior angles of the convex polygon: (*Think – how many triangles will it divide into?) a) hexagon b) decagon c) 13-gon b) 121-gon
Ex 2: Find the value of x 3x-2 4x-5 Find sum of all interior angles 2) Set up equation 3x 4x x+3 3x+4 Ex 3: The sum of the interior angles = 2700º. Find the # of sides.
Ex 4: Find the number of sides (n) of the convex regular polygon if… (Formula to find the sum of angles: ___________________) • ONE interior angle = 160º
Exterior Angles of a polygon:Find each exterior angle • 1 = • 2 = • 3 = • 4 = • 5 = • Sum =
For ALL Convex Polygons • Sum of exterior angles • Sum = 360º • ONE exterior angle of a regular n-gon is: • Exterior =360n
In Summary… • Sum interior angles of a convex n-gonis: • Sum = (n– 2)180 • Oneinterior angle of a regular n-gon is:
Ex 7: Find the measure of each exterior and interior angle if given the # of sides of a regular polygon. • 7 sides • Exterior Angle • Interior Angle • 19 sides • Exterior Angle • Interior Angle
