Practice Questions
Answer all questions. Show your working in the grid spaces provided.
1.
Calculate the sum of interior angles of a pentagon.
[2 marks]2.
Find the number of sides of a polygon if the sum of its interior angles is 1440°.
[3 marks]3.
What is the measure of each interior angle in a regular octagon?
[3 marks]4.
Construct a polygon with 7 sides and a total interior angle sum of 900°. Use the grid to sketch your polygon.
[4 marks]5.
A polygon has 12 sides. Calculate the measure of each interior angle if the polygon is regular.
[3 marks]6.
Explain why the sum of interior angles of a triangle is 180° using the sum formula.
[4 marks]7.
A hexagon has one interior angle measuring 120°. If the remaining five angles are equal, find the measure of each of these angles.
[4 marks]8.
Determine the number of sides of a polygon if each interior angle is 143° and the polygon is regular.
[3 marks]9.
A polygon has 9 sides. Calculate the sum of all its interior angles.
[2 marks]10.
Common mistake: A student calculates the sum for a pentagon as 720°. Identify and correct this mistake.
[3 marks]11.
Challenge: A polygon has 15 sides. The measure of each interior angle in a regular form is increased by 10° from the standard value. Find the new measure of each angle.
