What Are Angles in Regular Polygons?

Regular polygons are shapes with sides of equal length and angles of equal size. The sum of interior angles in a polygon is calculated using the formula:

Sum of Interior Angles = (n − 2) × 180°

where n represents the number of sides. This formula helps students understand how angles behave in different regular polygons.
