The Polygon Angle-Sum Theorems
Geometry 12.0 – Students find and uses
measures of interior and exterior angles of
triangles and polygons to classify figures and
solve problems.
Geometry 13.0- Students prove relationships
between angles in polygons by using properties
of exterior angles.

Find the measures of an interior angle and
an exterior angle of each regular polygon.
• Pentagon ( 5-sides)
Interior = 108 Exterior = 72
• Dodecagon (12-sides)
Interior = 150
Exterior = 30
• 18 –gon
Interior = 160
• 100-gon
Exterior = 20
Interior = 176.4
Exterior = 3.6
Exterior Angles of Polygons
• The exterior angle of a polygon will form a
linear pair with an interior angle.

The figure has 4 sides, so n = 4.
m < X + m < Y + m < Z + m < W = < (4 – 2)(180)
Polygon Angle-Sum Theorem
m X + m Y + 90 + 100 = 360
Substitute.
m X + m Y + 190 = 360
m X + m X = 170
2m X = 170
m X = 85
Simplify.
Substitute m X for m Y.
Simplify.
Divide each side by 2.
Find the sum of the measures of the angles of a decagon.
A decagon has 10 sides, so n = 10.
