Find the number of sides of a regular polygon if its each interior angle is 165°. |
|
Answer» Each interior angle = 165° ∴ Each exterior angle = 180° – 165° = 15° Let the number of sides be n. Sum of all exterior angles of polygon = 360° ∴ Value of each angle = 360°/n According to question = 360°/n = 15° ⇒ n = 360°/15° = 24 Therefore, the number of sides be 24 |

If one angle of a pentagon is 120° and each of the remaining four angles is x°, find the magnitude of x. |
|
Answer» One angle of a pentagon = 120° Let remaining four angles be x, x, x and x Their sum = 4x + 120° But sum of all the interior angles of a pentagon = (2n – 4) x 90° = (2 x 5 – 4) x 90° = 540° = 3 x 180° = 540° ∴ 4x + 120° = 540° 4x = 540° – 120° 4x = 420 x = (420/4)° ⇒ x = 105° ∴Equal angles are 105° (Each) |

Find the angle measure x in the given figure. |
|
Answer» This is a regular pentagon, as all sides are of equal length. AB = BC = CD = DE = EA The sum of interior angles of poligon is = (n – 2) × 180° [n is number of sides of polygon)] = (5 – 2) X 180° [ for pentagon n = 5] = 540° Since, it is a regular pentagon. It’s all interior angle will be equal. Size of Interior Angle x = 540/5 = 108° |

|
Answer» Number of diagonals in Pentagon is \(=n\times\frac{n\,-\,3}{2}\) [n represents number of sides] \(=5\times\frac{5\,-\,3}{2}\) \(=5\times\frac{2}{2}\) = 5 So, Number of diagonals in pentagon is 5. |
|
| 57. |
How many diagonals are there in pentagon?(a) 5 (b) 7 (c) 6 (d) 10 |
|
Answer» (a) 5 Explanation: We know that to calculate number of diagonals in pentagon is n × (n -3)/2 But here n=5 5 × (5-3)/2 =5 |
|
| 58. |
How many diagonals are there in a hexagon?(a) 6 (b) 8 (c) 9 (d) 10 |
|
Answer» (c) 9 Explanation: We know that to calculate number of diagonals in hexagon is n × (n -3)/2 But here n=6 6 × (6-3)/2 = 9 |
|
| 59. |
How many triangles can be for made if all the diagonals from a vertex of a 10 sided polygon are drawn? |
|

A polygon has 27 diagonals. How many sides does it have?(a) 7 (b) 8 (c) 9 (d) 12 |
|
Answer» (c) 9 Explanation: We know that to calculate number of diagonals in octagon is Number of diagonals is= n × (n -3)/2 27= n × (n -3)/2 n (n-3) = 54 n2– 3n = 54 n2– 3n-54 = 0 (n + 6) (n – 9)=0 n=-6 or n=9 So that we are calculating the sides it should be positive, therefore sides of polygon has 27 diagonals is 9 |
|
| 61. |

In any parallelogram, the ratio of two adjacent angles is 1 : 5. Find the value of all angles of parallelogram. |
|
Answer» Let ABCD is a parallelogram According to question ∠A : ∠B = 1 : 5 ∠A + ∠B = 180° ∵Sum of two adjacent angles of a parallelogram is 180° Sum of Ratio = 1 + 5 = 6 ∴∠A = 1/6 x 180° = 30° ∠B = 5/6 x 80° = 150° ∵ Opposite angles of a parallelogram are equal ∠C = ∠A = 30° and ∠D = ∠B = 150° ∴Angles of a parallelogram are 30°, 150°, 30° and 150°. |

An exterior angle in a polygon with all angles are equal is twice of an interior angle.(i) Find the measure of each angle in it?(ii) Find the number of sides? |
|
Answer» The exterior angles are equal as all the angles are equal. Let the interior angle is x, then the exterior angle is 2x. x + 2x = 3x = 180 ∴ x = 60 (i) Interior angles are 60° each and exterior angles are 120° each. (ii) The polygon has 3 sides. It is a triangle. |
