Game: UXO
Aim: Knock out the targets, avoid the bombs
Method:
Click or tap and hold to destroy the objects while avoiding the bombs. When you knock out all 10 targets, you must answer the question to continue to the next level. There is a time limit of 30 seconds to get all 10 targets or you lose 50 points.
Scoring is :
Hit target : +10
Hit bomb : -5
Right answer : +50
Wrong answers : -20
8th grade / Geometry & measures / Polygons / Interior and Exterior angles / Sum of interior angles
Any polygon with more than 3 sides can be split into a series of triangles by drawing lines between corners. Since we know that the interior angles of triangles sum to 180°, we can calculate the sum of the interior angles of any polygon by multiplying the number of triangles it contains by 180°. A shorthand version of this calculation is to take 2 away from the number of sides of a polygon and multiply that number by 180°.
The formula for calculating the sum of interior angles of a polygon given the number of sides is:
Sum of interior angles = (N - 2) x 180°
(where N = Number of sides and 180° = sum of interior angles of a triangle)
So, for any polygon with 5 sides (pentagon), the interior angles sum to:
3 x 180° = 540°
For a polygon with 10 sides (decagon), the interior angles sum to:
8 x 180° = 1440°
For a polygon with 3 sides (triangle), the interior angles sum to:
1 x 180° = 180°
With our UXO math game you will be practicing the topic "Sum of interior angles" from 8th grade / Geometry & measures / Polygons / Polygons. The math in this game consists of 16 questions that ask you to calculate the sum of the interior angles for each of the given polygons.
UXO is a fun game to learn math where you attempt to knock over all the target objects while avoiding clicking / tapping on the bombs.
After each level, win an additional 50 points by correctly answering a math question from your selected topic. Wrong answers lose you 20 points but you can answer multiple times. Each level lasts 30 seconds: if you haven't cleared all the targets in that time, you lose 50 points. High scores can be added to the UXO leaderboards.
