    Study Notes

    Interior and Exterior Angles

    Interior Angles

    • Defined as the angles formed inside a polygon by two adjacent sides
    • The sum of interior angles of a polygon with n sides is (n-2) × 180°
    • Each interior angle of a regular polygon is equal to (n-2) × 180° / n
    • Interior angles are always less than 180°

    Exterior Angles

    • Defined as the angles formed outside a polygon by one side and an extension of the adjacent side
    • The sum of exterior angles of a polygon is always 360°
    • Each exterior angle of a regular polygon is equal to 360° / n
    • Exterior angles are always less than 180°

    Relationships between Interior and Exterior Angles

    • The sum of an interior angle and its adjacent exterior angle is always 180°
    • An exterior angle is equal to the sum of the remote interior angles (the interior angles not adjacent to the exterior angle)

    Interior Angles

    • Defined as angles formed inside a polygon by two adjacent sides
    • Sum of interior angles in a polygon with n sides is (n-2) × 180°
    • Each interior angle in a regular polygon is (n-2) × 180° / n
    • Interior angles are always less than 180°

    Exterior Angles

    • Defined as angles formed outside a polygon by one side and an extension of the adjacent side
    • Sum of exterior angles in a polygon is always 360°
    • Each exterior angle in a regular polygon is 360° / n
    • Exterior angles are always less than 180°

    Relationships between Interior and Exterior Angles

    • Sum of an interior angle and its adjacent exterior angle is always 180°
    • Exterior angle equals the sum of the remote interior angles (interior angles not adjacent to the exterior angle)
