How do you calculate the interior angle of a regular polygon?

Back

The formula for the interior angle of a regular polygon is (n-2) * 180° / n, where n is the number of sides.

What is the sum of the interior angles of a polygon?

Back

The sum of the interior angles of a polygon with n sides is (n-2) * 180°.

What is the relationship between parallel lines and angles?

Back

When two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, corresponding angles are equal, alternate interior angles are equal, and consecutive interior angles are supplementary.
