If the sum of the measures of all the interior angles of a polygon is 2340
∘
. What is the number of sides of the polygon?
- A13
- B15
- C17
- D11
Solution & Step-by-step Explanation
The formula for the sum of the interior angles of an n-sided polygon is:
Sum=(n−2)×180
∘
Given that the sum is 2340
∘
:
(n−2)×180=2340
n−2=
180
2340
n−2=13
n=13+2=15
Thus, the number of sides of the polygon is 15.
