How Many Degrees are in a Pentagon?

Published in Mathematics 1 min read

A pentagon has 540 degrees.

Here's how to calculate that:

  • Formula: The sum of the interior angles of any polygon can be calculated using the formula (n-2) * 180, where 'n' is the number of sides.
  • Pentagon: A pentagon has 5 sides (n = 5).
  • Calculation: (5 - 2) 180 = 3 180 = 540 degrees.

Therefore, the total degrees in a pentagon are 540.
