Chapter 6.1 Angles of Polygons
Find the Interior Angles Sum of a Polygon A. Find the sum of the measures of the interior angles of a convex nonagon. A nonagon has nine sides. Use the Polygon Interior Angles Sum Theorem to find the sum of its interior angle measures. (n – 2) ● 180 = (9 – 2) ● 180 n = 9 = 7 ● 180 or 1260 Simplify. Answer: The sum of the measures is 1260.

Find Exterior Angle Measures of a Polygon A. Find the value of x in the diagram.
Find Exterior Angle Measures of a Polygon B. Find the measure of each exterior angle of a regular decagon. A regular decagon has 10 congruent sides and 10 congruent angles. The exterior angles are also congruent, since angles supplementary to congruent angles are congruent. Let n = the measure of each exterior angle and write and solve an equation. 10n = 360 Polygon Exterior Angle Sum Theorem n = 36 Divide each side by 10. Answer: The measure of each exterior angle of a regular decagon is 36.
