An octagon is any polygon with 8 sides, so you could construct one with a right angle. Since the sum of the angles in an octagon is 1080°, you could construct one with one or more right angles.

In a regular octagon, all sides and angles are equal. (Each angle = 135°, which is not a right angle).

You can go to the Math Openref website in the related link and play around with polygons of different number of sides, and see how the angles change.

If you cannot get to that site then think about this. It is a large square with two of the corners 'notched out' with smaller squares. It has 8 sides, and there are 6 angles of 90°, and 2 angles of 270° (a reverse right angle) Ignore the periods, I needed them to space out the figure:

What is the exterior angle of a octagon?

In an octagon, the sum of all exterior angles is always 360 degrees. Therefore, each exterior angle of an octagon measures 360 degrees divided by 8, which equals 45 degrees. This means that each exterior angle of an octagon is 45 degrees.

How many right angles does an octagon?

An octagon has 8 sides, and the sum of the interior angles of any polygon can be found using the formula (n-2) * 180 degrees, where n is the number of sides. In the case of an octagon, the sum of the interior angles is (8-2) * 180 = 1080 degrees. Since all the interior angles of an octagon are equal, each interior angle measures 1080 / 8 = 135 degrees. A right angle measures 90 degrees, so an octagon has 135 / 90 = 1.5 right angles.
