4. What is a regular polygon? Write the names of regular polygons having
A regular polygon is a polygon that it’s side has the same length or measure.
(a) 3 sides - Triangle
(b) 4 sides - Quadrilateral
(c) 5 sides - Pentagon
5. What can you say about the angle sum property of a convex polygon having:
(a) 9 sides – If you subtract the number of sides of the polygon which is 9 into 2, you’ll get 7 and you
need to multiply it to 180° and the product of it is 1260° therefore 1260° is our angle sum property.
(b) 7 sides – If you subtract the number of sides of the polygon which is 7 into 2, you’ll get 5 and you
need to multiply it to 180° and the product of it is 900° therefore 900° is our angle sum property.
(c) 10 sides - If you subtract the number of sides of the polygon which is 10 into 2, you’ll get 8 and you
need to multiply it to 180° and the product of it is 1440° therefore 1440° is our angle sum property.
(d) 12 sides - If you subtract the number of sides of the polygon which is 12 into 2, you’ll get 10 and you
need to multiply it to 180° and the product of it is 1800° therefore 1800° is our angle sum property.

8. Find the number of sides of a polygon whose each interior angle is:
180° ( n−2 )
(a) 165° = =165°
n
180° (n-2) = 165°
180° - 360°n = 165°n
180° - 165°n = 360°
15n = 360°
n = 24
( n−2 ) 180 °
(b) 135° = =135°
n
(n-2) 180° = 135°n
180° - 360° = 135°n

45n = 360°
n = 8
( n−2 ) 180 °
(c) 140° = = 140°
n
(n-2) 180° = 140°n
180°- 360° = 140°n
180°- 140° = 360°
40°n = 360°
( n−2 ) 180 °
(d) 162° = =162
n
(n-2)180° = 162°n
180°n – 360° = 162°n
180°n – 162° = 360°
18n = 360°
n = 20
( n−2 ) 180 °
(e) 108°= =108°
n
(n-2)180° = 108°n
180°n – 360° = 108°n
180°n – 108° = 360°
72n = 360°
n = 5
