Expectations • Explain how the formula for the sum of angles of a polygon is derived • Compute problems regarding the sum of angles of a polygon
How many degrees in the sum of the interior angles of a triangle? 180 Degrees
How many degrees in the sum of the interior angles of a quadrilateral? 360 Degrees
How many degrees in the sum of the interior angles of a pentagon? 330 + 210 = 540
The sum of the degrees increases 180 degrees for every additional angle Look for a pattern + 180 + 180 + 180 + 180
What is the relationship between the number multiplied by 180 and number of sides of a triangle? Look for a pattern 1 x 180 = 2 x 180 = 3 x 180 = 4 x 180 = 5 x 180 =
What is the relationship between the number multiplied by 180 and number of sides of a triangle? Look for a pattern Number of angles – 2 times 180 = sum of degrees or 1 x 180 = (n-2)180 = Sum of degrees 2 x 180 = 3 x 180 = 4 x 180 = 5 x 180 =
What is the sum of all the angles of an octagon? (8-2)180 = Sum of degrees (n-2)180 = Sum of degrees 6 x 180 = 1080
What is the sum of all the angles of an nonagon? (9-2)180 = Sum of degrees (n-2)180 = Sum of degrees 7 x 180 = 1260
Record formula in journal (n-2)180 = Sum of degrees
