L6.1 Polygon Interior Angle Sum

Explore Convex Polygon Angles' Measure Sum
Use this applet to study patterns with interior angle sums of polygons.
Explore Concave Polygon Angles' Measure Sum
CHANGE the Polygons and recheck Concave Polygon Angles' Measure Sum
 Since one of the angles forces the polygon to be CONCAVE, does it affect the polygon's exterior angle sum?
Draw in the auxiliary segments: diagonals.
