Formula to calculate interior angle = 180(n-2)/n , where , n is the no. of sides of the polygon.

The sum of interior angles of a regular polygon is ( n 2 ) ( 180 ) (n-2)(180) where n n is the number of sides.

Substituting, we get

( 5 2 ) ( 180 ) = 3 ( 180 ) = 540 (5-2)(180)=3(180)=540

Since there are 5 5 vertices, we simply divide 540 540 by 5 5 to get 10 8 108^\circ .
