a) How large is one angle of a regular octagon?

b) Which regular polygon has an internal angle of 108o?

Sum Int. = ( 2)180o

Sum Int. = (8 2)180o
Sum Int. = 1080o ,

1 ext. L = 180o 108o ( Ls on a straight line).

1 ext. L = 72o,
Hence, No. of ext. L =

d) A decagon has five angles equal and the remaining

angles each 88o larger than the first. Find one of the
larger angles.

80o

5 + 5( + 88o ) = ( 2)180o
5 + 5( + 88o ) = (10 2)180o
5 + 5 + 440o = 1440o
10 + 440o = 1440o
