As the number of sides increases, the measures of the angles increase
see the explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The measure of the interior angle in a regular polygon is equal to
where
n is the number of sides of the regular polygon
x is the measure of the interior angle in a regular polygon
we have that
<u><em>Examples</em></u>
<em>A triangle</em>
n=3 sides
<em>A square</em>
n=4 sides
<em>A pentagon</em>
n=5 sides
<em>A hexagon</em>
n=6 sides
so
n ----> 3,4,5,6...
x ----> 60°,90°,108°,120°,...
As the number of sides increases, the measures of the angles increase
The pattern is
