The sum of the interior angles of a polygon is 9x³. If x is 3 greater than the number of sides of the polygon, how many sides does the polygon have?

Respuesta :

Answer:

n = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the interior angles of a polygon is 9[tex]x^2[/tex]. If x is 3 greater than the number of sides of the polygon, how many sides does the polygon have?

The sum of the interior angles of a concave polygon can be found using the formula S = (n - 2)*180.

n= number of sides of the polygon

n-2 * 180 = the sum of the interior angles

9[tex]x^2[/tex]= the sum of the interior angles

9[tex]x^2[/tex]= (n-2) *180

x= 3+ n

9 [tex](3+n)^{2}[/tex]=(n-2) *180

9 (9+6n+n^2) = (n-2) *180

81+54n+9n^2 = (n-2) *180

n = 7
