1. Find the interior angle of regular polygon A, the 20-sided icosagon.
For a regular -sided polygon,
For polygon A, :
2. Use angles at a point to find the interior angle of polygon B.
The three polygons fit together at a common vertex, so their angles around the point add to .
The angle for polygon C is marked as a right angle, so it is .
3. Determine the number of sides of polygon B from its interior angle.
Let polygon B have sides.
4. State the special name of the 5-sided regular polygon.
A polygon with sides is called a pentagon.
Polygon B is a pentagon.
