Interior and Exterior Angles of Polygons

Interactive practice questions

Consider the pentagon below:

a

What is the interior angle sum of a pentagon?

b

Find an expression for the interior angle sum of the pentagon involving the exterior angles $v$v, $w$w, $x$x, $y$y and $z$z

c

Hence solve for the sum of the exterior angles of the pentagon. That is, solve for the value of $v+w+x+y+z$v+w+x+y+z.
