The sum of the interior angles of the polygon shown is 540 degrees
Solution:
The sum of the measures of the interior angles of a polygon with n sides is:
[tex]Sum = (n -2) \times 180[/tex]
From given figure in question,
Number of sides in polygon = 5 ( which is a pentagon )
Therefore,
n = 5
Thus the sum of measures of interior angles is:
[tex]Sum = (5-2) \times 180\\\\Sum = 3 \times 180\\\\Sum = 540[/tex]
Thus the sum of the interior angles of the polygon shown is 540 degrees
