Question
pascal wants to find the sum of the measures of the interior angles of a polygon that has \\(n\\) sides. how could he do this?
- multiply \\(180^\circ\\) by \\(n\\)
- multiply \\(180^\circ\\) by \\((n+2)\\)
- multiply \\(180^\circ\\) by \\((n-2)\\)
- multiply \\(180^\circ\\) by 2
Identify the formula for the sum of interior angles
$$
S = (n - 2) \times 180^\circ
$$
Interpret the formula in words
$$
\text{Sum} = 180^\circ \times (n - 2)
$$
Match with the given options
$$
\text{Multiply } 180^\circ \text{ by } (n - 2)
$$
