RECAP: Interior angles of quadrilateral The interior angles of a quadrilateral add up to 360. ? 1 Parallelogram 2 y 100° x x 50° x = 130° ? 3 ? y = 80° ? x = 100° Trapezium x 60° x = 120° ? 4 Kite x 95° 55° x = 105° ?
Sum of interior angles n = 3 Total of interior angles = 180° n = 4 Total of interior angles = 360° Can you guess what the angles add up to in a pentagon? How would you prove it?
Sum of interior angles Click to Bromanimate We can cut a pentagon into three triangles. The sum of the interior angles of the triangles is: 3 x 180° = 540° ! For an n-sided shape, the sum of the interior angles is: 180(n-2) ?

Exercise 1 N 2 If a n-sided polygon has exactly 3 obtuse angles (i. e. 90 < < 180 ), then determine the possible values of (Hint: determine the possible range for the sum of the interior angles, and use these inequalities to solve). ?
Interior Angles An exterior angle of a polygon is an angle between the line extended from one side, and an adjacent side. Which of these are exterior angles of the polygon? ? NO ? YES NO?
Interior Angles To defeat Kim Jon Il, Matt Damon must encircle his pentagonal palace. What angle does Matt Damon turn in total? 360° ? ! The sum of the exterior angles of any polygon is 360°. Click to Start Damonimation
Interior Angles If the pentagon is regular, then all the exterior angles are clearly the same. Therefore: Exterior angle of pentagon = 360 / 5? = 72° Interior angle of pentagon = 180 – 72 ? = 108°

Q 4 The interior angle of a regular polygon is 165. How many sides does it have? Interior angle = 180 – 165 = 15 n = 360 ÷ 15 = 24 ? Alternative method: Total interior angle = 165 n Then solve 180(n – 2) = 165 n
Exercise 2 Q 1 Determine how many sides a regular Q 3 polygon with the following exterior angle would have: 30 12 sides 45 8 sides 12 30 sides 9 40 sides ? ? The diagram shows a regular hexagon and a regular octagon. Calculate the size of the angle marked. You must show all your working. Interior angle of hexagon: 180 – (360/6) = 120 Interior angle of octagon: 180 – (360/8) = 135 x = 360 – 120 – 135 = 105 Q 2 Determine how many sides a regular polygon with the following interior angle would have: 156 15 sides 162 20 sides 144 10 sides 175 72 sides ? ? ? Q 4 The pattern is made from two types of tiles, tile A and tile B. Both tile A and tile B are regular polygons. Work out the number of sides tile A has. Interior angle of A = (360 – 60)/2 = 150 Exterior angle = 30 Sides = 360/30 = 12 ?
Exercise 2 Q 5 A regular polygon is surrounded by squares and regular hexagons, alternating between the two. How many sides does this shape have? Q 6 ? Equilateral triangle, square, hexagon. N Interior angle = 360 – 90 – 120 = 150 n = 360 / 30 = 12 sides ? Find all regular polygons which tessellate (when restricted only to one type of polygon). By thinking about interior angles, prove that the regular polygons you identified above are the only regular polygons which tessellate. Method 1: The possible exterior angles of a regular polygons are the factors of 360 less than 180: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10, 12, 15, 18, 20, 24, 30, 36, 40, 45, 60, 72, 90, 120 This gives interior angles of 179, 178, . . . , 140, 135, 120, 108, 90, 60. To tessellate, the interior angle has to divide 360. Only 120, 90 and 60 does. This corresponds to a hexagon, square and equilateral triangle. ? Method 2: 360 divided by the interior angle must give a whole number, in order for the regular polygon to tessellate. Interior angle is 180 – (360/n), so 360 / (180 – (360/n)) = k for some constant k. Simplifying this gives kn – 2 k – 2 n = 0 This factorises to (k – 2)(n – 2) = 4 This only numbers which multiply to give 4 are 1 x 4 or 2 x 2 or 4 x 1. This n = 6, 4 or 3 in each case.
