[b]1. What is a + b + c + d + e, the total angles turned by the car? 2. a, b, c, d, e are called the exterior angles of the convex pentagon ABCDE. In general, what is the sum of all exterior angles of a convex polygon? 3. Is the result still true if the pentagon ABCDE is NOT convex? [/b] Anthony Or. GeoGebra Institute of Hong Kong. |
