Final answer:

The value of the unknown angle r in a heptagon is 150 degrees, calculated by subtracting the sum of the given angles from the total sum of interior angles of the heptagon.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the value of the unknown angle r in a heptagon, we need to know the sum of all angles in a heptagon.

A heptagon has seven sides and the sum of its interior angles can be calculated as (n-2) × 180°, where n is the number of sides.

In the case of a heptagon, this amounts to (7-2) × 180° = 5 × 180° = 900°.

To find the value of r, simply subtract the sum of the given angles from the total sum of angles.

Sum of given angles = 135° + 115° + 100° + 150° + 160° + 90° = 750°

Now, subtract this from the total sum of angles:

900° - 750° = 150°

Therefore, the value of the unknown angle r is 150°.
