Answer by solver91311(24713) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
The sum of the interior angles of any n-sided polygon is given by
For the time being, I'm going to call that number
, and I leave it to you to calculate the value of
.
If the angles are proportional, then all of the angles must have a common factor in their measures. We'll call that common factor
. So the first angle is
, the second is
, and so on. That means we can write:
So once you have figured out the value of S, plug it into the equation and solve for
. Then calculate
,
, and so on. Check your work to make sure that the angles all add up to your value of
John

My calculator said it, I believe it, that settles it
