For n = 5, sum is 540°; for n = 6, 720°; for n = 7, 900°. General formula: (n – 2) × 180°. Proof: Drawing all diagonals from a single vertex divides the n-gon into n – 2 triangles, ...

(i) A diagonal connects two non-adjacent vertices. Diagonals: 3-gon: 0; 4-gon: 2; 5-gon: 5; 6-gon: 9; 7-gon: 14; 8-gon: 20. (ii) Increasing sides by 1 adds n – 1 diagonals. Formula: n(n – 3)/2, since each of the n vertices ...
(ii) No for 100 and 1; yes for 10. The fourth side x satisfies 11 – (5 + 2) < x < 11 + 5 + 2, meaning 4 < x < 18. (iii) Each side must be strictly less ...
(i) The displacement vector mapping E to O (E’) defines four parallelograms: E E’ S’ S, E E’ O’ O and E E’ M’ M. Translations preserve edge lengths and angles, guaranteeing an exact congruent match. (ii) Translating along both ...
Rotating △ABC and △ADC along hinge AC strictly reduces ∠A and ∠C below face angle sums, making the total sum < 360°. Yes, using very sharp triangles folded nearly flat gives a 2° total angle sum. Cbse Class 9 Maths Ganita ...
