Any ideas on any of them?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yeah i think i have the first one right idk though i need serious help with my math
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
ok show me what you got on the first one
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i said it was 180(n-2)

good
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
the sum of all the angles in any n-gon is 180(n-2)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
okay ,i don't really know any more of them
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
so a) is 180(n-2)
---------------------------------
b)
now in any regular n-gon, the interior angles are equal, so you take the sum of all the angles and you divide it by n to get the measure of one interior angle
so the measure of each interior angle is
\[\Large \frac{180(n-2)}{n}\]
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
for any polygon, the sum of the exterior angles is always 360 degrees
how would you find the measure of one exterior angle (all ext angles are equal and there are n of them)?

Idk really would you times n by 360
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
close, you actually take 360 and you divide it by n
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
so each ext angle is 360/n degrees
OpenStudy (anonymous):
oh okay that makes more since lol
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
that's great

the only thing left to do is add the answers you got for b) and d)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i didn't do D though
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
oh, that's 360/n
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i thought that was C ok hold on heres what i have A.180(n-2) ,B.180(n-2) divided by n ,C. 360 divided n .
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
C is just 360

C is the sum of all n ext angles, which is 360 degrees
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
D is 360/n
OpenStudy (anonymous):
oh okay yeah sorry was confused for a minute
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
that's ok
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok how would i do E again
