Question

exercises
find the sum of the measures of the interior angles of each convex polygon.

  1. decagon
  2. 16 - gon
  3. 30 - gon
  4. octagon
  5. 12 - gon
  6. 35 - gon

Explanation:

Response
Problem 1: Decagon

Step1: Recall the formula for the sum of interior angles of a polygon.

The formula for the sum of the interior angles of a convex polygon with \( n \) sides is \( S=(n - 2)\times180^{\circ} \). A decagon has \( n = 10 \) sides.

Step2: Substitute \( n = 10 \) into the formula.

\( S=(10 - 2)\times180^{\circ}=8\times180^{\circ} \)

Step3: Calculate the result.

\( 8\times180^{\circ}=1440^{\circ} \)

Step1: Use the polygon interior angle sum formula \( S=(n - 2)\times180^{\circ} \), where \( n = 16 \).

Step2: Substitute \( n = 16 \) into the formula.

\( S=(16 - 2)\times180^{\circ}=14\times180^{\circ} \)

Step3: Compute the value.

\( 14\times180^{\circ}=2520^{\circ} \)

Step1: Apply the formula \( S=(n - 2)\times180^{\circ} \) with \( n = 30 \).

Step2: Substitute \( n = 30 \) into the formula.

\( S=(30 - 2)\times180^{\circ}=28\times180^{\circ} \)

Step3: Calculate the product.

\( 28\times180^{\circ}=5040^{\circ} \)

Answer:

\( 1440^{\circ} \)
