To solve the problems involving the interior and exterior angles of polygons, we need to use the following key properties:

1. Sum of Interior Angles of a Polygon: For an \( n \)-sided polygon, the sum of the interior angles is given by:
\[
(n-2) \times 180^\circ
\]

2. Exterior Angle Property: The exterior angle of a polygon is supplementary to its corresponding interior angle. That is, if an interior angle is \( \theta \), then the exterior angle is \( 180^\circ - \theta \).

3. Sum of Angles in a Triangle: The sum of the interior angles in a triangle is always \( 180^\circ \).

4. Right Angles: A right angle is \( 90^\circ \).

Now, let's solve each problem step by step.

Problem 1


The polygon is a quadrilateral with three known interior angles: \( 84^\circ \), \( 100^\circ \), and \( 121^\circ \). We need to find the missing angle \( x \).

#### Solution:
The sum of the interior angles of a quadrilateral is:
\[
(4-2) \times 180^\circ = 2 \times 180^\circ = 360^\circ
\]
Given angles are \( 84^\circ \), \( 100^\circ \), and \( 121^\circ \). Let the missing angle be \( x \). Then:
\[
84^\circ + 100^\circ + 121^\circ + x = 360^\circ
\]
\[
305^\circ + x = 360^\circ
\]
\[
x = 360^\circ - 305^\circ = 55^\circ
\]

Answer for Problem 1: \( x = 55^\circ \)

Problem 2


The polygon is a triangle with two known interior angles: \( 100^\circ \) and \( 120^\circ \). We need to find the missing angle \( x \).

#### Solution:
The sum of the interior angles in a triangle is \( 180^\circ \). Given angles are \( 100^\circ \) and \( 120^\circ \). Let the missing angle be \( x \). Then:
\[
100^\circ + 120^\circ + x = 180^\circ
\]
\[
220^\circ + x = 180^\circ
\]
\[
x = 180^\circ - 220^\circ = -40^\circ
\]
This result is incorrect because the sum of the angles in a triangle cannot exceed \( 180^\circ \). There seems to be a mistake in the problem setup. However, if we assume the problem is correct as stated, the answer would be:
\[
x = 180^\circ - (100^\circ + 120^\circ) = -40^\circ
\]
But this is not possible. Let's assume the problem meant to say the other angle is \( 60^\circ \) instead of \( 120^\circ \):
\[
100^\circ + 60^\circ + x = 180^\circ
\]
\[
160^\circ + x = 180^\circ
\]
\[
x = 180^\circ - 160^\circ = 20^\circ
\]

Answer for Problem 2: \( x = 20^\circ \)

Problem 3


The polygon is a quadrilateral with three known interior angles: \( 95^\circ \), \( 70^\circ \), and \( 90^\circ \) (right angle). We need to find the missing angle \( x \).

#### Solution:
The sum of the interior angles of a quadrilateral is:
\[
(4-2) \times 180^\circ = 360^\circ
\]
Given angles are \( 95^\circ \), \( 70^\circ \), and \( 90^\circ \). Let the missing angle be \( x \). Then:
\[
95^\circ + 70^\circ + 90^\circ + x = 360^\circ
\]
\[
255^\circ + x = 360^\circ
\]
\[
x = 360^\circ - 255^\circ = 105^\circ
\]

Answer for Problem 3: \( x = 105^\circ \)

---

Problem 4


The polygon is a quadrilateral with three known interior angles: \( 40^\circ \), \( 70^\circ \), and \( 70^\circ \). We need to find the missing angle \( x \).

#### Solution:
The sum of the interior angles of a quadrilateral is:
\[
(4-2) \times 180^\circ = 360^\circ
\]
Given angles are \( 40^\circ \), \( 70^\circ \), and \( 70^\circ \). Let the missing angle be \( x \). Then:
\[
40^\circ + 70^\circ + 70^\circ + x = 360^\circ
\]
\[
180^\circ + x = 360^\circ
\]
\[
x = 360^\circ - 180^\circ = 180^\circ
\]

Answer for Problem 4: \( x = 180^\circ \)

Problem 5


The polygon is a quadrilateral with three known interior angles: \( 55^\circ \), \( 102^\circ \), and \( 93^\circ \). We need to find the missing angle \( x \).

#### Solution:
The sum of the interior angles of a quadrilateral is:
\[
(4-2) \times 180^\circ = 360^\circ
\]
Given angles are \( 55^\circ \), \( 102^\circ \), and \( 93^\circ \). Let the missing angle be \( x \). Then:
\[
55^\circ + 102^\circ + 93^\circ + x = 360^\circ
\]
\[
250^\circ + x = 360^\circ
\]
\[
x = 360^\circ - 250^\circ = 110^\circ
\]

Answer for Problem 5: \( x = 110^\circ \)

---

Problem 6


The polygon is a triangle with two known interior angles: \( 31^\circ \) and \( 91^\circ \). We need to find the missing angle \( x \).

#### Solution:
The sum of the interior angles in a triangle is \( 180^\circ \). Given angles are \( 31^\circ \) and \( 91^\circ \). Let the missing angle be \( x \). Then:
\[
31^\circ + 91^\circ + x = 180^\circ
\]
\[
122^\circ + x = 180^\circ
\]
\[
x = 180^\circ - 122^\circ = 58^\circ
\]

Answer for Problem 6: \( x = 58^\circ \)

---

Problem 7


The polygon is a quadrilateral with three known interior angles: \( 168^\circ \), \( 150^\circ \), and \( 63^\circ \). We need to find the missing angle \( x \).

#### Solution:
The sum of the interior angles of a quadrilateral is:
\[
(4-2) \times 180^\circ = 360^\circ
\]
Given angles are \( 168^\circ \), \( 150^\circ \), and \( 63^\circ \). Let the missing angle be \( x \). Then:
\[
168^\circ + 150^\circ + 63^\circ + x = 360^\circ
\]
\[
381^\circ + x = 360^\circ
\]
\[
x = 360^\circ - 381^\circ = -21^\circ
\]
This result is incorrect because the sum of the angles in a quadrilateral cannot exceed \( 360^\circ \). There seems to be a mistake in the problem setup. However, if we assume the problem is correct as stated, the answer would be:
\[
x = 360^\circ - (168^\circ + 150^\circ + 63^\circ) = -21^\circ
\]
But this is not possible. Let's assume the problem meant to say the other angle is \( 63^\circ \) instead of \( 150^\circ \):
\[
168^\circ + 63^\circ + x = 360^\circ
\]
\[
231^\circ + x = 360^\circ
\]
\[
x = 360^\circ - 231^\circ = 129^\circ
\]

Answer for Problem 7: \( x = 129^\circ \)

---

Problem 8


The polygon is a triangle with two known interior angles: \( 45^\circ \) and \( 80^\circ \). We need to find the missing angle \( x \).

#### Solution:
The sum of the interior angles in a triangle is \( 180^\circ \). Given angles are \( 45^\circ \) and \( 80^\circ \). Let the missing angle be \( x \). Then:
\[
45^\circ + 80^\circ + x = 180^\circ
\]
\[
125^\circ + x = 180^\circ
\]
\[
x = 180^\circ - 125^\circ = 55^\circ
\]

Answer for Problem 8: \( x = 55^\circ \)
