Math Problem Statement
Solution
This image presents a convex polygon with three known angles: 50°, 60°, and 110°. The goal is to find the unknown angle, labeled as v.
To solve for v, we can use the fact that the sum of the interior angles of any polygon is given by:
where n is the number of sides of the polygon.
Since the shape appears to be a quadrilateral (4 sides), we can use the formula for the sum of the interior angles for a quadrilateral:
Now, add the known angles:
Subtract the sum from 360° to find the value of v:
Thus, v = 140°.

- What happens if the polygon is concave rather than convex?
- How do we calculate the sum of interior angles of polygons with more than four sides?
- How would we approach finding the unknown angle in a triangle?
- What is the relationship between interior and exterior angles in any polygon?
Tip: Always remember that the sum of interior angles depends on the number of sides of the polygon—use the formula for any polygon.
