Each corner of a convex polygon is 140 degrees. Find the number of sides of this polygon.

1. We take as x the number of sides of a given geometric figure.

2.Considering that, according to the corresponding theorem, the total value of all interior angles of any convex polygon is 180 ° (x – 2), we compose the equation:

140x = 180 (x – 2);

140 x = 180x – 360:

40x = 360;

x = 9.

Answer: This polygon has 9 sides.
