The sum of the interior angles of regular polygon is 1800o. How many sides has the polygon?
16
12
10
8
Maelezo
Sum = (n - 2)180
1800 = (n - 2)180
divide both sides by 180o
\(\frac{1800}{180}\) = (n - 2)\(\frac{180}{180}\)
10 = n - 2
10 + 2 = n
n = 12
1800 = (n - 2)180
divide both sides by 180o
\(\frac{1800}{180}\) = (n - 2)\(\frac{180}{180}\)
10 = n - 2
10 + 2 = n
n = 12
