The formula to find the interior angles of a polygon is (n-2)180
n=number of sides
(24-2)180=?

hm not quite
(n-2)180 = 2880 solve for n

Mercury:
remember your distributive property
A(B-C) = A*B - A*C
180(n-2) = ?

Mercury:
A(B-C) = A*B - A*C
following the pattern:
180(n-2) = 180*n - 180*2 = 2880
solve for n

Mercury:
180*n - 180*2 = 2880
multiplying 180 by 2 gives us 360
therefore:
180*n - 360 = 2880
add 360 to both sides
180n = 2880 + 360
now solve for n

Mercury:
the sum of the exterior angles is 360
so you need to sum up all the angles, set them equal to 360, and solve for x

7?

Mercury:
(2x-5) + 29 + 67 + 36 + 32 + 75 + x + 54 = 360
solve for x

princeevee:
okay so all the sides have to add up to 360, right?

princeevee:
would this be 51?

Mercury:
be careful
for exterior angles, yes, the sum is 360
this question is asking about interior angles, which uses the formula
sum = 180(n-2)
since this is a heptagon it has 7 sides so n = 7
so sum = 180(7-2) = ?

hm not quite
adjacent angles in a parallelogram are supplementary so
4x + 84 = 180 solve for x

hm
the diagram isn't 100% clear but I belive they're trying to say
CG = 2x
CE = 3x + 8
which means 2x = (1/2)(3x+8) by virtue of CE being half the full diagonal
solve for x, then figure out CE 3x + 8
