Calculate the Sum of the Interior Angles From the Given Figure Using MATLAB

Question

In order to have a closed geometric figure composed of straight lines (Shown in figure), the angles in the figure must add to

                                                          (𝑛−2)(180 𝑑𝑒𝑔𝑟𝑒𝑒𝑠)

Where n is the number of sides.

a) Write a program that prompts the user to enter one of the following

triangle

square

pentagon

hexagon

Use the input to define the value of n via a switch/case structure;

Then use n to calculate the sum of the interior angles in the figure.

b) Reformulate your program from part (b) so that it uses a menu.

Summary

This question belongs to MATLAB software and discusses about application of MATLAB in mathematics and to calculate the sum of the interior angles from the given figure.
