Year 7 Angles in Polygons Worksheet — Level 1 — Practice Set 2 — Answers
Interior angle sum = (n − 2) × 180°. The exterior angles of any convex polygon add to 360°.
1.Find the sum of the interior angles of a 11-sided polygon.
Answer: 1,620°
- Angle sum = (n − 2) × 180°
- (11 − 2) × 180° = 1,620°
2.Find the size of each interior angle of a regular 24-sided polygon.
Answer: 165°
- Angle sum = (24 − 2) × 180° = 3,960°
- 3,960° ÷ 24 = 165°
3.Find the sum of the interior angles of a hexagon.
Answer: 720°
- Angle sum = (n − 2) × 180°
- (6 − 2) × 180° = 720°
4.Find the size of each interior angle of a regular nonagon.
Answer: 140°
- Angle sum = (9 − 2) × 180° = 1,260°
- 1,260° ÷ 9 = 140°
5.Find the sum of the interior angles of a heptagon.
Answer: 900°
- Angle sum = (n − 2) × 180°
- (7 − 2) × 180° = 900°
6.Find the size of each interior angle of a regular dodecagon.
Answer: 150°
- Angle sum = (12 − 2) × 180° = 1,800°
- 1,800° ÷ 12 = 150°
7.Find the sum of the interior angles of a pentagon.
Answer: 540°
- Angle sum = (n − 2) × 180°
- (5 − 2) × 180° = 540°
8.Find the size of each interior angle of a regular 36-sided polygon.
Answer: 170°
- Angle sum = (36 − 2) × 180° = 6,120°
- 6,120° ÷ 36 = 170°
9.Find the sum of the interior angles of an octagon.
Answer: 1,080°
- Angle sum = (n − 2) × 180°
- (8 − 2) × 180° = 1,080°
10.Find the size of each interior angle of a regular 20-sided polygon.
Answer: 162°
- Angle sum = (20 − 2) × 180° = 3,240°
- 3,240° ÷ 20 = 162°
Marking tips
- Give credit for correct method even when the final answer slips — the working shows where the thinking went right.
- For open-ended tasks, use the success criteria as a checklist rather than looking for one "right" answer.
- Celebrate what went well first, then pick one thing to work on next.
Great work. Here's what to try next:
