What is the sum of the interior angles of a pentagon?

Back

The sum of the interior angles of a pentagon is 540 degrees.

Front

If angle R in a pentagon measures 100 degrees and angles Q and S are congruent, how do you find the measure of angle Q?

Back

Subtract the measure of angle R from 540 degrees, then divide the remainder by 3 (since Q and S are congruent).
