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 15-sided polygon.
Answer: 2,340°
- Angle sum = (n − 2) × 180°
- (15 − 2) × 180° = 2,340°
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 heptagon.
Answer: 900°
- Angle sum = (n − 2) × 180°
- (7 − 2) × 180° = 900°
4.Find the size of each interior angle of a regular dodecagon.
Answer: 150°
- Angle sum = (12 − 2) × 180° = 1,800°
- 1,800° ÷ 12 = 150°
5.Find the sum of the interior angles of a hexagon.
Answer: 720°
- Angle sum = (n − 2) × 180°
- (6 − 2) × 180° = 720°
6.Find the size of each interior angle of a regular decagon.
Answer: 144°
- Angle sum = (10 − 2) × 180° = 1,440°
- 1,440° ÷ 10 = 144°
7.Find the sum of the interior angles of a nonagon.
Answer: 1,260°
- Angle sum = (n − 2) × 180°
- (9 − 2) × 180° = 1,260°
8.Find the size of each interior angle of a regular 30-sided polygon.
Answer: 168°
- Angle sum = (30 − 2) × 180° = 5,040°
- 5,040° ÷ 30 = 168°
9.Find the sum of the interior angles of a dodecagon.
Answer: 1,800°
- Angle sum = (n − 2) × 180°
- (12 − 2) × 180° = 1,800°
10.Find the size of each interior angle of a regular pentagon.
Answer: 108°
- Angle sum = (5 − 2) × 180° = 540°
- 540° ÷ 5 = 108°
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:
