What is the interior angle sum of the non-convex hexagon?
Consider the convex hexagon:
Find the least number of triangles that the hexagon can be divided into.
Find the interior angle sum of the hexagon.
Consider the pentagon:
Find the value of the following:
Deduce the angle sum of the pentagon.
How many non-overlapping triangles can an n-sided figure be split into?
Determine whether each of the following is the rule for the angle sum of an n-sided polygon:
Consider the figure. The quadrilateral is divided into two triangles (this is the least number of triangles that a quadrilateral can be divided into).
The interior angle sum of a quadrilateral is therefore equal to double the interior angle sum of a triangle.
Complete the following table. 'Least Number of Triangles' means the least number of triangles that the shape can be divided up into.

Heptagon | |||
Octagon | |||
Nonagon | |||
Decagon |
