document.write( "Question 865487: The measures of the interior angles of a convex octagon increase by 10 degrees for each angle what is the measure of the largest angle. I tried finding the measure of the interior angle of a regular octagon and I found out that it is 135 degrees. Then, I thought that if I added these numbers (135,145,125,155,115,165,105175) that it might solve the problem, but it was incorrect. \n" ); document.write( "

An octagon has 8 sides and the sum of the interior angles of a convex octagon is
\n" ); document.write( "(8-2)(180) = 1080 degrees
\n" ); document.write( "also our convex polygon has no angle pointing inward, that is, no interior angle is greater than 180 degrees
\n" ); document.write( "our formula is
\n" ); document.write( "(x+10) + (x+20) +(x+30) + (x+40) + (x+50) + (x+60) + (x+70) + (x+80) = 1080
\n" ); document.write( "8x + 360 = 1080
\n" ); document.write( "8x = 720
\n" ); document.write( "x = 90
\n" ); document.write( "therefore our interior angles are
\n" ); document.write( "100, 110, 120, 130, 140, 150, 160, 170
\n" ); document.write( "and the largest interior angle is 170 degrees\r
