How do you find the measure of one interior angle of a regular polygon?

Back

To find the measure of one interior angle of a regular polygon, use the formula: (n - 2) * 180 / n, where n is the number of sides.

If a regular polygon has an interior angle of 120 degrees, how many sides does it have?

Back

A regular polygon with an interior angle of 120 degrees has 6 sides.

What is the relationship between interior and exterior angles of a polygon?

Back

The interior and exterior angles of a polygon are supplementary, meaning they add up to 180 degrees.
