3. ABSTRACTION (Time Allotment: 10 minutes)

Remember:
 The angles formed by the sides of a polygon are called interior angles of a polygon. The
angles formed where its sides are extended are called exterior angles of a polygon.
 The sum of the interior angles of a convex polygon with n sides is given by S= (n-2)
180⁰.
 The sum of the exterior angles of a convex polygon (one at each vertex) is 360⁰.
 The measure of each interior angle of a regular polygon represented an r is r=
( n−2 ) 180 °
.
n
 Regular polygon is an equiangular (equal angles) and equilateral (equal sides) polygon.
 The perimeter of the polygon is represented as P, and the formula to get the perimeter of a
regular polygon is P = number of sides (n) x length of a side.
 The interior angle and its adjacent exterior angle form a linear pair. It means that the sum of
their measures is 180⁰.
