...angles are the exterior angles of an irregular polygon ; and as the sum of all the interior angles are equal to twice as many right angles, as the figure has sides, wanting four ; and as the sum of all the exterior, together with all the interior angles, are equal... | |

...Prove that all the internal angles of any rectilineal figure, together with four right angles, are equal to twice as many right angles as the figure has sides; and that all the external angles are together equal to four right angles. In what sense are these propositions... | |

...proposition of Geometry, that in any figure bounded by straight lines, the sum of all the interior angles is equal to twice as many right angles, as the figure has sides less two ; since the figure can be divided into that number of triangles. Hence this common rule. "... | |

...and in an irregular polygon they may be all unequal. The interior angles of a polygon are together equal to twice as many right angles as the figure has sides, less four. On this is based the theory of the traverse, of which further explanation will be given... | |
