SOLUTION: degrees in a six sided convex polygon

Question 130666: degrees in a six sided convex polygon
Answer by Madgamer107(9) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
the amount of degrees in a polygon can be solved using the formula 180(n-2) where n is the number of sides. An easy way to remember this formula involves always considering triangles. You know that triangles had 3 sides and 180 degrees, so this formula is applicable. To find the degrees in a six sided polygon, simply plug in 6 for n.
180(n-2)
180(6-2)
180(4)
720
