Providing that it is a regular polygon then each interior angle will measure 160 degrees

Exterior angle + interior angle = 180 Hence Interior Angle = 180 - Exterior Angle The Exterior Angle = n(No. of sides ) / 360 Substituting Interior Angle = 180 - (n/360) Interior Angle = 180 - (18/360) Interior Angle = 180 - (1/20) Interior Angle = 179.95 degrees.
The interior angles of an n-sided polygon add to (n-2)*180 degrees. So the interior angles of a 20-gon add to 18*180 = 3240 degrees. The 20-gon is regular so each angle is a 20th of this ie 3240/20 = 162 deg.
A twenty-sided polygon is called an "icosagon" If it is a regular icosagon - all its sides and angles are equal - then it's interior angles are all 162 degrees. You can verify this by drawing a line to the centre from each angle.. There will be 20 small angles arranged in a circle around the centre. These must total 360 degrees. As 360 / 20 = 18, this leaves the other angles of each triangle to add up to 162, because the interior angles of a triangle total 180 degrees.

A regular 18 sided polygon has 18 exterior angles each measuring 20 degrees
