Answer:

1) The sum of interior angles of a convex polygon is equal to (n-2) × 180°, where 'n' is the number of sides of the polygon.

2) A regular polygon is a flat shape whose sides are all equal and whose angles are all equal. The formula for finding the sum of the measure of the interior angles is (n - 2) * 180. To find the measure of one interior angle, we take that formula and divide by the number of sides n: (n - 2) * 180 / n.

4) Irrespective of the number of sides of a regular polygon, the measure of each exterior angle is equal and the sum of the measure of all the exterior angles of the regular polygon is equal to 360°.
