NONAGON

NONAGON
Is a nine-sided polygon Also known as enneagon. A nonagon has nine inside angles. All nine sides of a nonagon are of equal length.

Regular Nonagons: The properties of regular nonagons:

All sides are the same length (congruent) and all interior angles are the same size (congruent). To find the measure of the angles, we know that the sum of all the angles is 1260 degrees (from above)... And there are nine angles...

So, the measure of the angle of a regular nonagon is 140 degrees.

MORE ABOUT NONAGON


- A nonagon is a two-dimensional figure. - Nonagons are studied in the branch of geometry called plane geometry. - In plane geometry a nonagon is classified as a type of regular polygon.

Interior angle

140

Like any regular polygon, to find the interior angle we use the formula (180n 360)/n. For a nonagon, n=9.

Exterior Angle

40

To find the exterior angle of a regular decagon, we use the fact that the exterior angle forms a linear pair with the interior angle, so in general it is given by the formula 180-interior angle.

Area

Where S is the length of a side. To find the exact area of a decagon or any polygon, using various methods.

Number of diagonals

27

The number of distinct diagonals possible from all vertices. (In general n (n3) ).

Number of triangles

The number of triangles created by drawing the diagonals from a given vertex. (In general n2).

Sum of interior angles

1260

In general 180(n 2) degrees.
