REVIEW for Shapes and Designs Unit Test

1.What is the interior angle sum of a regular hexagon? Show your work.

Sum = 180 x 6 – 360 = 720

2. How many degrees are in one exterior angle of a regular hexagon?

First, find the measure of each interior angle. (180 x 6 – 360)  6 = 120

Then, subtract the interior angle from 180 to get the exterior angle:

180-120 = 60 OR divide 360 by 6 = 60

  1. What is the interior angle sum of a regular decagon? Show your work?

Sum = 180 x 10 – 360 = 1440

4. How many degrees are in one exterior angle of a regular decagon?

First, find the measure of each interior angle. (180 x 10 – 360)  10 = 144

Then, subtract the interior angle from 180 to get the exterior angle:

180-144 = 36 OR divide 360 by 10 = 36

5. A triangle has sides of 6 and 7 units. The longest side is missing. What are possible measurements for the longest side?

The longest side must be less 13 units and greater than 7 units

6. Is a triangle with angle measures 52°, 30°, and 100° possible? Explain why
or why not.

NO- 52 + 30 + 100 = 182, the three angles of a triangle must equal 180

7. Is a triangle with angle measures 40°, 50°, and 90° possible? Explain why
or why not.

YES- 40 + 50 + 90 = 180 and the three interior angles of a triangle must be equal to 180

8. Estimate the measures of the angles below.

a.
about 50 / b.

About 120

9. Use rectangle ABCD with diagonal DB. Find the measure of the angle
marked x. Show your work.

The angle at vertex C must be 90 since it is a rectangle.

X + 90 + 61 = 180, so x = 29

10. Use the figure below which shows parallel lines and a transversal.
The measure of 2 is 46°. Find the measures of angles 1, 3, and 6.
Explain how you found each measure.

a. measure of 1 = 134 b/c angles 1 and 2 are supplementary (=180)

b. measure of 3 = 46 b/c it is a vertical angle to angle 2

c. measure of 6 = 46 b/c angles 2 and 6 are corresponding so they must be congruent

11. Suppose the measure of an angle is 52°. What is the measure of its
complementary angle?

Complementary add to 90, so 90 – 52 = 38

Draw the angles to show that you are correct.

12. Suppose two angles are supplementary and one of them measures 49°.

What is the measure of the other angle?

Supplementary add to 180, so 180 – 49 = 131

Draw the angles to show that you are correct.

13. Draw a parallelogram with two sides of length 15 cm, two sides of length
8 cm, and angles of 60° and 120°.

14. Is it possible to build a quadrilateral with the given side lengths? Why or why not?

a. 5, 6, 8, 9

YES because 5 + 6 + 8 = 19 which is more than 9 (the longest side)

b. 5, 3, 2, 12

No because 5 + 3 + 2 = 10 which is less than 12 (the longest side)
