In a regular pentagon, there are no right angles. A regular pentagon is one that has 5 equal sides and 5 equal angles. The sum of the 5 angles is 540 degrees. This is found by subtracting 2 from the number of sides and multiplying by 180 degrees. For a regular pentagon the formula would be (5 - 2) * 180 = 540. This works for all polygons. Just replace the 5 with the number of side in the polygon. A good website to visit for this is http://regentsprep.org/Regents/math/poly/LPoly1.htm.

A non-regular pentagon can have right angles. Home plate on a Baseball field would be an example.

Original Answer Nope, it has 5 angles of 72 degrees each.

sorry just make it simple always take 180 degrees and divided by the # of sides it will always give you the correct cut angle to make a angle frame exmp 180 degrees / by 8 = 22.5 that cut would give you a octagone. so for a equal sided polygon always divide the 180 degrees by the # of sides. so for a pentagon the cut would be 36 degrees on each end which = 72 degrees 72 X 5 (sides) = 360 degrees

What shape has 3 right angles and 2 obtuse angles?

A shape with 3 right angles and 2 obtuse angles is a pentagon. A pentagon is a five-sided polygon, and when three of its angles are right angles (90 degrees each) and two are obtuse angles (greater than 90 degrees each), it meets the criteria specified. This specific type of pentagon is known as a concave pentagon, as it has at least one interior angle greater than 180 degrees.
