1. 120°
Angles on a straight line add to 180°. 180 − 60 = 120°.
2. 112°
Angles on a straight line add to 180°. 180 − 68 = 112°.
3. 143°
Angles on a straight line add to 180°. 180 − 37 = 143°.
4. 37°
Angles on a straight line add to 180°. 180 − 143 = 37°.
5. 67°
Angles in a triangle add to 180°. 180 − 81 − 32 = 67°.
6. 28°
Angles in a triangle add to 180°. 180 − 69 − 83 = 28°.
7. 37°
Angles in a triangle add to 180°. 180 − 61 − 82 = 37°.
8. 73°
Angles in a triangle add to 180°. 180 − 37 − 70 = 73°.
9. 135°
Sum of interior angles = (8 − 2) × 180 = 1080°. Each angle = 1080 ÷ 8 = 135°.
10. 120°
Sum of interior angles = (6 − 2) × 180 = 720°. Each angle = 720 ÷ 6 = 120°.
11. 144°
Sum of interior angles = (10 − 2) × 180 = 1440°. Each angle = 1440 ÷ 10 = 144°.
12. 108°
Sum of interior angles = (5 − 2) × 180 = 540°. Each angle = 540 ÷ 5 = 108°.
Worked examples

- Angles on a straight line add to 180°.
- 180 − 30 = 150°.
- Answer: 150°
A triangle has angles 34° and 92°. Find the third angle.
- Angles in a triangle add to 180°.
- 180 − 34 − 92 = 54°.
- Answer: 54°
Find the size of each interior angle of a regular 9-sided polygon.
- Sum of interior angles = (9 − 2) × 180 = 1260°.
- Each angle = 1260 ÷ 9 = 140°.
- Answer: 140°
