Answer:

Each interior angle = 180° -60° = 120°

Step-by-step explanation: We know that the three angles in a triangle, add up to 180°, and all the three angles are 60° in an equilateral triangle. The total number of angles of an enclosed space is 180° (n-2) where in is the number of sides.
A hexagon has six sides, so: s= 180° (6-2)

s= 180° x 4

s= 720°

now since in a regular shape, each interior angle is equal. We just divide the total interior angle with a number of sides

6.

720° divided by 6 is equal to 120°
