Do all polygons interior angles add up to 360?
To find the sum of interior angles of a polygon, multiply the number of triangles in the polygon by 180°. The formula for calculating the sum of interior angles is ( n − 2 ) × 180 ∘ where is the number of sides. All the interior angles in a regular polygon are equal. The sum of exterior angles of a polygon is 360°.
Which angles add up to 360 degrees?
The sum of the exterior angles of a triangle and any polygon is 360 degrees.
How many sides does a polygon have if the sum of its interior angle is 360?
What is true about the sum of interior angles of a polygon?
Shape | Formula | Sum Interior Angles |
---|---|---|
3 sided polygon (triangle) | (3−2)⋅180 | 180∘ |
4 sided polygon (quadrilateral) | (4−2)⋅180 | 360∘ |
6 sided polygon (hexagon) | (6−2)⋅180 | 720∘ |
Why do angles add up to 360?
Angle Sum of a Quadrilateral For any quadrilateral, we can draw a diagonal line to divide it into two triangles. Each triangle has an angle sum of 180 degrees. Therefore the total angle sum of the quadrilateral is 360 degrees.
Is the sum of interior angles always 360?
The sum of the exterior angles of any polygon (remember only convex polygons are being discussed here) is 360 degrees. This is a result of the interior angles summing to 180(n-2) degrees and each exterior angle being, by definition, supplementary to its interior angle.

Does a rhombus add up to 360?
[edit] Properties As with all quadrilaterals, the sum of the interior angles of a rhombus is 360 degrees; as with a parallelogram, the angles of opposite pairs of vertices are equal, and the sum of the angles of two adjacent vertices is 180 degrees. The perimeter of a rhombus is equal to 4 times the length of one side.
