Angles of

a
Polygon
Objectives:
At the end of the lesson the learner will be able
to
Name the parts of a polygon and classify them
as either convex or concave
Classify polygons according to the number of
sides
Determine the sum of the measures of the
interior angles of a polygon
Parts of a Polygon
Four important terms related to a polygon:
Interior angle
Side
Vertex
Diagonal
Convex and Concave
Polygons
Polygons can be also be classified as either convex or concave.
Consider the following examples:
Sum of the Measures of Interior
Angles of Polygons
Example
   2: Find the sum of the measures of interior angles
of an octagon.

Solution:
Sum of the measures of interior angles of a polygon
= (n – 2) 180

Therefore, the sum of the measures of interior angles of an


octagon
= (8 – 2) 180
= 6 180
= 1080
Example 3: Find the measure of each interior angle
of a regular nonagon.
 
Example 4: The sum of the measures of interior
angles of a polygon is 1 440. How many sides does
the polygon have?
