The interior angles of any polygon always add up to a constant value, which depends only on the number of sides.
The sum of the interior angles of a polygon is given by the formula :
degrees where is the number of sides
you are given
so, plug it is
...solve for




since the number of the sides is decimal number, answer is: it is possible to draw a polygon that has interior angles that sum up to

No, the sum is always an integral multiple of 180 degrees.
If n = # of angles (also the # of sides),
Sum = (n-2)*180, n = 3,4,5 ...
-----------
The minimum value of n = 3. No polygon has fewer than 3 sides.

Don't try the old joke, "How many sides does a circle have?" Answer: 2, inside and outside.
