Interior and Exterior Angles of Polygons Worksheet - Find the missing angles in various polygons.

Let’s solve each problem step by step. We’ll use key geometry concepts:

- Sum of interior angles of an n-gon: `(n - 2) × 180°`
- Exterior angle = 180° – Interior angle (at the same vertex)
- Sum of exterior angles of any polygon = 360°
- Straight line = 180°
- Triangle sum = 180°

Problem 1

This is a quadrilateral (4 sides). Sum of interior angles = `(4 - 2) × 180° = 360°`

Given angles: 84°, 100°, and one exterior angle 121° → so its interior angle = 180° – 121° = 59°

So:
> 84 + 100 + 59 + x = 360
> 243 + x = 360
> x = 117°

✔ Answer: 117

Problem 2

This is a triangle with two exterior angles shown: 100° and 120°.

→ Interior angles at those vertices:
- 180° – 100° = 80°
- 180° – 120° = 60°

Sum of triangle angles = 180° →
> 80 + 60 + x = 180
> 140 + x = 180
> x = 40°

✔ Answer: 40

Problem 3

This is a quadrilateral with right angles (90°) at two corners.

Given: 95°, 70°, and two 90° angles? Wait — let's check.

Actually, looking at the diagram: it has one right angle, and another angle marked as 95°, 70°, and x°.

Wait — the shape has 4 sides. Let’s assume it’s a quadrilateral with angles:

- One interior angle = 95°
- One interior angle = 70°
- One right angle = 90°
- One unknown = x°

Sum = 360°

> 95 + 70 + 90 + x = 360
> 255 + x = 360
> x = 105°

✔ Answer: 105

Problem 4

This is a pentagon (5 sides). Sum of interior angles = `(5 - 2) × 180° = 540°`

But we’re given exterior angles: 40°, 60°, 70°, 70°, and x°.

Wait — sum of exterior angles of ANY polygon = 360°

So:

> 40 + 60 + 70 + 70 + x = 360
> 240 + x = 360
> x = 120°

✔ Answer: 120

Problem 5

This is a quadrilateral with three interior angles given: 55°, 93°, 102°, and one exterior angle x°.

First, find the fourth interior angle:

> 55 + 93 + 102 + y = 360
> 250 + y = 360
> y = 110°

Then, since x is the exterior angle at that vertex:

> x = 180° – 110° = 70°

✔ Answer: 70

Problem 6

This is a triangle. Two exterior angles are given: 159° and 31°.

Interior angles at those vertices:

- 180° – 159° = 21°
- 180° – 31° = 149°

Wait — 149° + 21° = 170° → then third interior angle = 10° → then exterior angle x = 180° – 10° = 170°

But let’s double-check: the third angle is marked as 91° — wait, that’s an interior angle!

Wait — look again: the diagram shows:

- One exterior angle = 159° → interior = 21°
- One interior angle = 91°
- One exterior angle = 31° → interior = 149°? That can’t be — 21 + 91 + 149 = 261 > 180! Impossible.

Ah — mistake! The 31° is actually an interior angle? No, the diagram shows it as an exterior angle.

Wait — perhaps I misread. Let me re-analyze.

Actually, in the diagram, the 91° is an interior angle, and 31° and 159° are exterior angles.

So interior angles:

- At 159° exterior → interior = 180 – 159 = 21°
- At 31° exterior → interior = 180 – 31 = 149° ← this is too big for a triangle!

That’s impossible — a triangle can’t have an interior angle of 149° and another of 21° and 91° — sum would be 261°.

Wait — maybe the 31° is interior? But it’s drawn as an exterior angle.

Alternative approach: Maybe only two exterior angles are shown, and x is the third exterior angle.

Sum of exterior angles of any polygon = 360°

So:

> 159 + 31 + x = 360
> 190 + x = 360
> x = 170°

Yes! That makes sense — regardless of the polygon type, sum of exterior angles = 360°.

Even if it’s a triangle, the exterior angles still sum to 360°.

So:

✔ Answer: 170

Problem 7

This is a complex figure — looks like a pentagon or irregular shape with many angles.

We are to find x°, which appears to be an exterior angle.

Given angles: 168°, 150°, 75°, 63°, and two right angles (90°).

Wait — count the vertices: 6 angles shown? But some may be exterior.

Actually, let’s consider the polygon interior angles.

It seems to be a hexagon? Or pentagon?

Better approach: Use the fact that around a point, angles sum to 360°, but here it’s a polygon with several given interior angles.

List all given interior angles:

- Two right angles: 90°, 90°
- 168°, 150°, 75°, 63°

That’s 6 angles → so likely a hexagon.

Sum of interior angles of hexagon = `(6 - 2) × 180° = 720°`

Sum of given angles:

> 90 + 90 + 168 + 150 + 75 + 63 =
> 90+90=180; 180+168=348; 348+150=498; 498+75=573; 573+63=636

So total so far = 636°

Missing angle = 720 – 636 = 84°

But x is shown as an exterior angle adjacent to that missing interior angle.

So:

> x = 180° – 84° = 96°

✔ Answer: 96

Problem 8

This is a triangle with two exterior angles: 80° and 45°, and we need to find x°, which is the third exterior angle.

Sum of exterior angles of any polygon = 360°

So:

> 80 + 45 + x = 360
> 125 + x = 360
> x = 235°

Wait — that can’t be right for a triangle. Exterior angles are usually taken one per vertex, and they should each be less than 180°.

Ah — mistake! The 80° and 45° are interior angles? Let’s check the diagram.

Looking at Problem 8: It’s a triangle with angles marked as 80° and 45° — these are interior angles.

Then the third interior angle = 180 – 80 – 45 = 55°

Then x is the exterior angle at that vertex → x = 180 – 55 = 125°

Yes! That makes sense.

✔ Answer: 125
