Why is octagon nonagon and decagon the wrong numbers from october November and December?
The terms octagon, nonagon, and decagon refer to polygons with eight, nine, and ten sides, respectively. They are not related to the months of October, November, and December, which are the tenth, eleventh, and twelfth months of the year. The confusion arises because the prefixes "octa-", "nona-", and "deca-" denote numerical values rather than any direct connection to the months themselves. Instead, October (8), November (9), and December (10) derive their names from Latin, indicating their position in the Roman calendar.

What is the regular angle of a regular decagon?
Well, a decagon is a 10-sided polygon. The equation for finding the measure of an interior angle of a regular polygon is this number: 180*(n-2) /n. (And in this instance, "n" stands for NUMBER of sides of a polygon.) So we can plug the numbers in: n=10 (because there are 10 sides of a decagon and "n" stands for # of sides)180*(10-2)-------------- (divided by) 10So your answer is 144 degrees. Hope that helped. :)
