As the number of sides in a regular polygon increases, the angle increases. This occurs as a function where each interior angle measures (180*(n-2)) / n, where n is the number of sides.

nothing Assuming you mean for example you add a side to a pentagon to get a hexagon, then the sum of the interior angles increases by 180o.


Which regular polygon will have the largest angle measure?

Whether you are talking about the measure of each interior angle, or the total of all the interior angles, there is no largest. The more sides a regular polygon has, the larger it angles will be. As the number of sides grows without bound, the measure of each interior angle gets closer and closer to 180 degrees, and the polygon looks more and more like a circle. The sum of the interior angles increases by 180 degrees every time you add a side.
