Laws of Angles a a a a a a Opposite angles ? Alternate angles ? Corresponding angles ? Bro Tip: When asked to give a justification in an exam for how you determined an angle, write one of the above – NOT “Z angles” or “F angles”. You won’t get the mark.

Angles in Polygons An exterior angle of a polygon is an angle between the line extended from one side, and an adjacent side. Which of these are exterior angles of the polygon? ? ? NO YES ? NO
Angles in Polygons To defeat Kim Jon Il, Matt Damon must encircle his pentagonal palace. What angle does Matt Damon turn in total? 360° ? ! The sum of the exterior angles of any polygon is 360°. Click to Start Damonimation
Angles in Polygons If the pentagon is regular, then all the exterior angles are clearly the same. Therefore: Exterior angle of pentagon = 360 / 5 = 72° Interior angle of pentagon = 180 – 72 = 108° ? ?

Angles in Polygons Example GCSE Question ? Interior angle of hexagon = 180° – (360°/6) = 60° Interior angle of octagon = 180° – (360°/8) = 135° x = 360° – 120° – 135° = 105°
Angles in Polygons Copy the diagram and answer. ? Given that B has interior angle 60: Interior angle of A = (360 – 60)/2 = 150 Exterior angle of A = 30 So A has 360 / 30 = 12 sides
Sum of Interior Angles We know how to find the interior angle of a regular polygon. But can we find the total angle if the polygon is not regular? n sides We could split the shape up into n – 2 triangles. Now noticing that the interior angles of each triangle form the interior angles of the overall polygon, the total interior angle must be 180(n – 2) ! Total interior angle = 180(n – 2) ?
