उत्तर
The expression for the number of diagonals that we can make from one vertex of a n sided polygon is n – 3.
Explanation:
Since, the vertex is formed by joining two sides. Diagonal is a line segment joining the two opposite vertex. So, the number of diagonals formed by one vertex = n – 3.

To find sum of three numbers 14, 27 and 13, we can have two ways:
- We may first add 14 and 27 to get 41 and then add 13 to it to get the total sum 54 or
- We may add 27 and 13 to get 40 and then add 14 to get the sum 54. Thus, (14 + 27) + 13 = 14 + (27 + 13)
