3.6 Angles in Polygons
Warm-Up: Here’s a two part puzzle designed to prove that half of eleven is six. First rearrange two sticks to reveal the number eleven. Then remove half of the sticks to reveal the number six.
Convex Polygon:
A polygon in which any line segment connecting two points of the polygon has no part outside the polygon.
Concave Polygon:
A polygon that is not convex.
Consider the following Pentagon:
𝟏Divide the polygon into three triangular regions by drawing all the possible diagonals from one vertex.
Find each of the following:
𝟐𝟑𝟒
𝟔
𝟓𝟗
𝟕𝟖
Add the three expressions:
Note: You can form triangular regions by drawing all possible diagonals from a given vertex of any polygon

The sum of the measures of the interior angles of a polygon with n sides is:
180(n-2)
Note: Recall that a regular polygon is on in which all the angles are congruent.
