Above you see a hexagon, a 6-sided polygon.
Angles 1 and 2 are adjacent angles.
One of them is an interior angle of the hexagon, and one of them is an exterior angle of the hexagon.
Can you name which is which?
OpenStudy (chicatica11):
1 would be interior?
OpenStudy (chicatica11):
no #2
OpenStudy (mathstudent55):
Interior means inside.
Exterior means outside.
Is angle 1 inside or outside the polygon?

sorry i looked at it wrong
OpenStudy (mathstudent55):
Correct.
Angle 2 is interior and angle 1 is exterior.
OpenStudy (chicatica11):
okay
OpenStudy (mathstudent55):
If I tell you that this drawing is drawn to scale, then you would be able to use a protractor to measure the angles.
Do angles 1 and 2 look like they have the same measure?
OpenStudy (chicatica11):
yes?
