Step 1
The internal angle measure of a triangle no matter the type is 180 o
The 4 sided polygons (square being the most understood) has an interior angle measure of 4 90 o or 360 o
for an equilateral 20 sided polygon the equation is 360 o 20
if the sides are of varying length then the polygon has to be plotted and the answer is more complex as the adjacent side lengths have to be taken into account.

Step 1
The formula for calculating the sum of the interior angles of a polygon is as follows:
( n - 2 ) 180
n is the number of sides of the polygon.
In this case, we can plug in 20 to get the following:
( 20 - 2 ) 180
18 180
3 , 240
