  2. Then/Now You named and classified polygons. • Find and use the sum of the measures of the interior angles of a polygon. • Find and use the sum of the measures of the exterior angles of a polygon.

  3. Vocabulary • Diagonal-Of a polygon is segment that connects any two nonconsective vertices.

  4. Vocabulary

  5. Example 1A 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.

  6. Since the sum of the measures of the interior angles is Write an equation to express the sum of the measures of the interior angles of the polygon. Example 1B Find the Interior Angles Sum of a Polygon B. Find the measure of each interior angle of parallelogram RSTU. Step 1 Find x.

  7. Example 1B Find the Interior Angles Sum of a Polygon Sum of measures of interior angles Substitution Combine like terms. Subtract 8 from each side. Divide each side by 32.

  8. Example 1B Find the Interior Angles Sum of a Polygon Step 2 Use the value of x to find the measure of each angle. mR = 5x = 5(11) or 55 mS = 11x + 4 = 11(11) + 4 or 125 mT = 5x = 5(11) or 55 mU = 11x + 4 = 11(11) + 4 or 125 Answer:mR = 55, mS = 125, mT = 55, mU = 125

  10. Example 1B B. Find the value of x. A.x = 7.8 B.x = 22.2 C.x = 15 D.x = 10

  11. Example 2 Interior Angle Measure of Regular Polygon ARCHITECTUREA mall is designed so that five walkways meet at a food court that is in the shape of a regular pentagon. Find the measure of one of the interior angles of the pentagon.

  12. Example 2 Interior Angle Measure of Regular Polygon Understand Look at the diagram of the situation. The measure of the angle of a corner in between two walkways is the interior angle of a regular pentagon. Plan Use the Polygon Interior Angles Sum Theorem to find the sum of the measures of the angles. Since the angles of a regular polygon are congruent, divide this sum by the number of angles to find the measure of each interior angle.

  13. Example 2 Interior Angle Measure of Regular Polygon Solve Find the sum of the interior angle measures. (n – 2) ● 180 = (5 – 2) ● 180 n = 5 = 3 ● 180 or 540 Simplify. Find the measure of one interior angle. Substitution Divide.

  14. Example 2 Interior Angle Measure of Regular Polygon Answer: The measure of one of the interior angles of the food court is 108. Check To verify that this measure is correct, use a ruler and a protractor to draw a regular pentagon using 108 as the measure of each interior angle. The last side drawn should connect with the beginning point of the first segment drawn.

  15. Example 2 A pottery mold makes bowls that are in the shape of a regular heptagon. Find the measure of one of the interior angles of the bowl. A. 130° B. 128.57° C. 140° D. 125.5°

  16. Example 3 Find Number of Sides Given Interior Angle Measure The measure of an interior angle of a regular polygon is 150. Find the number of sides in the polygon. Use the Interior Angle Sum Theorem to write an equation to solve for n, the number of sides. 180(n– 2) Interior Angle Sum Theorem (150)n = 180(n – 2) 150is the measure of one interior angle times the “n” number of side 150n = 180n – 360 Distributive Property -30n= -360 Subtract 180nfrom each12=n Divide each side by 30. Answer: The polygon has 12 sides

  26. Example 4A Find Exterior Angle Measures of a Polygon Use the Polygon Exterior Angles Sum Theorem to write an equation. Then solve for x. 5x + (4x – 6) + (5x – 5) + (4x + 3) + (6x – 12) + (2x + 3) + (5x + 5) = 360 (5x + 4x + 5x + 4x + 6x + 2x + 5x) + [(–6) + (–5) + 3 + (–12) + 3 + 5] = 360 31x – 12 = 360 31x = 372 x = 12 Answer: x = 12

  28. Example 4B 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.
