Pentagon = 5 sided polygon.


\boxed {\text {Sum of all interior angles = (n - 2) x 180}}

Given that n = 5,

Sum of all interior angles = (5 - 2) x 180 = 540°

Answer: 540°

A pentagon can be broken up into three triangles.

since all triangles measure 180 degrees, we can say that the sum of the interior angles of a pentagon is

180 * 3

540 degrees

hope this helps
