ROCK FALL game to practice
'Number of sides from exterior angle' for 8th grade

Regular polygon: calculate the number of sides from the exterior angle

The exterior angle of a polygon is the angle made by one side of the polygon and the extension of the next side of the polygon. By applying the angles on a straight line rule, we know that the interior angle plus the exterior angle sum to 180°. The sum of the exterior angles of polygons is always 360°.

This topic deals with regular polygons. Regular polygons have equal length sides and each of their interior angles is identical. Examples of regular polygons are equilateral triangle, square, regular hexagon, etc. Because their interior angles are identical, their exterior angles are also identical. The formula for calculating the number of sides of a regular polygon given it's exterior angle is:

Number of sides = 360° / E

(where 360° = total of exterior angles and E = exterior angle of polygon)

So, for a regular polygon with an exterior angle of 120°, the number of sides is:

360° / 120° = 3

For a regular polygon with an exterior angle of 90°, the number of sides is:

360° / 90° = 4

For a regular polygon with an exterior angle of 72°, the number of sides is:

360° / 72° = 5

With our Rock fall math game you will be practicing the topic "Number of sides from exterior angle" from 8th grade / Geometry & measures / Polygons / Polygons. The math in this game consists of 16 questions that ask you to use the exterior angle to calculate the number of sides for each regular polygon.

Large thumbnail for math game Rock fall

ROCK FALL is based on the road traffic warning sign for falling rocks - a sign that seems a bit less useful than somebody getting up there on that cliff and actually doing something about it... Anyway, the rocks are falling and it is your job to stop them hitting the road below, or at least stopping them hitting the road below too many times and breaking it. Smash the rocks by clicking or tapping on them (not so easy in real life of course) - they will turn into snowflakes and float gently down into nothing.

There are 4 rocks to stop and not much time to do it (if you want to get a good score and get on the leaderboard). This game is fun and fast and requires good reflexes and a good strategy. Plan to break the smaller rocks first if you want a good score because the rocks fall faster as the game progresses. It also helps to decide where on their path you plan to click / tap the rocks.
