So, each interior angle in Leo's designed piece of jewelry, in the shape of a regular pentagon, measures
\( 108^\circ \).

In a regular pentagon, all interior angles are equal. The formula to calculate the measure of each interior angle in a regular polygon is given by:


\[ \text{Interior Angle} = ((n-2) * 180^\circ)/(n) \]

where
\( n \) is the number of sides. For a regular pentagon
(\( n = 5 \)), the calculation would be:


\[ \text{Interior Angle} = ((5-2) * 180^\circ)/(5) = (3 * 180^\circ)/(5) = 108^\circ \]

So, each interior angle in Leo's designed piece of jewelry, in the shape of a regular pentagon, measures
\( 108^\circ \).

The probable question maybe:

What is the measure of each interior angle in Leo's designed piece of jewelry, considering it is in the shape of a regular pentagon?
