The sum of the measures of the interior angles of a polygon is
(n-2)180
where n is the number of sides in the polygon.
Then, if you have a regular polygon (all sides are the same length, and angles equal), you can divide by the number of sides to get the angle of each side.
For instance, a pentagon has five sides.
n = 5
(5-2)180
(3)180 = 540˚
There is a total of 540˚ in a pentagon.
If it's a REGULAR pentagon, each angle is 108˚.

What is the angle of polygon sides?
It is given by the formula (number of sides - 2) * 180 degrees.
What is the formula for how many sides are in a polygon?
There is no formula for how many sides there are in a polygon; the name of the polygon shows how many sides it has.
What is the formula for the total angles of a polygon?
The sum of the interior angles of a polygon with n sides is (n-2)*180 degrees.
What is the equation for the angle sum formula?
The sum of the interior angles of a polygon with n sides is (n-2)*180 degrees The sum of the exterior angles of a polygon is 360 degrees, however many sides it has.
How many degrees does a polygon have if it has 6 sides?
This polygon has 720 degrees.
