What is the sum of the measures of the interior angles of a pentagon?
Solution:
The angles that lie inside a shape (generally a polygon) are said to be interior angles and a pentagon is defined as a polygon with 5 sides.
Sum of the measures of the interior angles of a pentagon = (n - 2) × 180º
= (5 - 2) × 180º
= 3 × 180º
= 540º
Therefore, the sum of the measures of the interior angles of a pentagon is 540º.
