Math Problem Statement

What is the sum of the interior angles of the polygon?

Solution

The image contains a question about a polygon, which appears to be a triangle. The question asks for the sum of the interior angles of the polygon, with the following options:

  • A. 4545^\circ
  • B. 9090^\circ
  • C. 180180^\circ
  • D. 360360^\circ

Solution:

The sum of the interior angles of a polygon is determined by the formula: Sum of interior angles=180×(n2),\text{Sum of interior angles} = 180^\circ \times (n - 2), where nn is the number of sides of the polygon.

For a triangle (n=3n = 3): Sum of interior angles=180×(32)=180.\text{Sum of interior angles} = 180^\circ \times (3 - 2) = 180^\circ.

Final Answer:

The correct option is C. 180180^\circ.
