One interior angle measure is for any regular x-gon. You can find that using your own investigation and identify the pattern. The sum of the interior angles of this x-gon will be .

Analyzing your exercise description, n-gon is the "former" and m-gon is the "latter"; .

Simplifying the system should give something equivalent to .
