Make the following number sequences, from the sequence of equilateral triangles, squares, regular pentagons and so on, of regular polygons. Arithmetic sequence . 10 standard mathematics
1)Make the following number sequences, from the sequence of equilateral triangles, squares, regular pentagons and so on, of regular polygons:
No. Of sides. 3,4,5,.....
Sum of inner angles
One inner angle
One outer angle
Ans:
No.of sides :3,4,5
Sum of inner angles:
Sum of inner angles of a regular polygon of n sides
= n × [ (n - 2)180° ]/2
= (n - 2)180°
∴ Sum of interior angles of equilateral triangle (n = 3), square (n = 4), regular pentagon (n = 5), etc are:
180°, 360°, 540°, ..........
Sum of outer angles of a regular polygon of n sides
= n × 180° - (n - 2) × 180°
= 2 × 180°
= 360°
which is free from "n".
