Problem

A Octagon has one interior angle that measures 108 degrees. What is the measure of each of the other seven interior angles in the Octagon?

2

Step

Given that one of the interior angles is

108°

3

Hint

A Octagon has 8 sides

4

Formula

The sum of its interior angles can be calculated using the formula:

\$(n - 2) \times 180°\$

5

Step

Now place the n value into the formula.

⇒ \$(8 - 2) \times 180°\$

⇒ \$ 6 \times 180° = 1080°\$

6

Step

Now can find the measure of each of the other seven interior angles by subtracting the known angle from the sum of the interior angles:

Each interior angle = \$("Sum of interior angles - Known angle") / ("Number of other angles")\$

7

Step

After simplification

Each interior angle = \$(1080° - 108°) / 7\$

Each interior angle = \$(972°) / 7\$

Each interior angle = 138.85°

8

Step

So, each of the other seven interior angles in the octagon measures 138.86°.
