Solution
As per above table, convex polygon with 4 sides have angle sum (4−2)×180o
(a)
(7−2)×180o=900o is the angle sum of convex polygon with 7 sides
(b)
(8−2)×180o=1080ois the angle sum of convex polygon with 8 sides
(c)
(10−2)×180o=1440ois the angle sum of convex polygon with 10 sides
(d) For n sides
(n−2)×180ois the angle sum of convex polygon with n sides
