Question 758116: A polygon has the sum of interior angles as 1440degree. Write the name of the polygon.
Answer by Cromlix(4381) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Formula = (180(n - 2)) = total interior angles
Where 'n' = no. of sides
(180(n - 2)) = 1440
180n - 360 = 1440
180n = 1440 + 360
180n = 1800
n = 10
Therefore your polygon is a decagon.
Hope this helps.
