  1. Ask your question and show the work you've done so far. If you've posted a screenshot of a question, specify which part you need help with.
  2. Wait patiently for a helper to come along.
  3. Once someone helps you, say thank you and close the thread with:
    +close
    
  4. Feel free to nominate the person for helper of the week in #helper-nominations

Yo

What’s up

mellow storm
# pulsar arch

So for the left remember the exterior angles add up to 360 degrees no matter the number of sides

#

To find the interior value of a regular polygon

#

We use the formula 180(n-2) / n

#

So in this case n is 8

#

Then remember to divide by 45

#

Because we are expressing the interior angle as 45 times smth

#

Let me know what you get

pulsar arch
#

Ok

mellow storm
#

And I can double check those answers

pulsar arch
#

I got 3 for the 180(8-2)/8

#

Would it be three?

mellow storm
#

Yes

pulsar arch
#

For the second one would I add them all up?

mellow storm
#

And set it equal to 360

#

Exterior angles always add up to 360

pulsar arch
#

22x=360

mellow storm
#

22?

#

Add carefully

pulsar arch
#

Oh 24

#

the X's look like missing angles

#

Ok got it's 15

mellow storm
#

Yup

pulsar arch
#

I have another one

mellow storm
#

Sure go ahead

pulsar arch
#

I know it would be 180(12-2)

mellow storm
#

Ok

#

Then what?

#

Will you do

pulsar arch
#

Would I add the a

#

all of them

mellow storm
#

Well what is the formula I gave for interior angles

pulsar arch
#

180(n-2)

mellow storm
#

Wait one sec

mellow storm
pulsar arch
#

Ok

mellow storm
#

Misread the question

pulsar arch
#

I got 36a

#

and 1800 for 180(12-2)

mellow storm
#

Ok

#

So what do you get for a

pulsar arch
#

36

mellow storm
#

Be careful

#

1800/36

pulsar arch
#

would it be 50

mellow storm
#

Yup

pulsar arch
#

Ty for all the help I'm done

#

mellow storm
#

Np

Have a good day
