"#$% '(














What about Regular Polygons?

8ecause each polygon wlLh n sldes also has n angles of equal measure, you can dlvlde
Lhe sum of Lhe angles by n Lo flnd Lhe measure of one angle.


Regular Polygon Interior Angle Theorem:


1he measure of CnL of Lhe lnLerlor angles of a regular polygon ls ___________________
where n ls Lhe number of sldes of Lhe polygon.



What about Exterior Angles?







Polygon Exterior Angle-Sum Theorem:
