Interior angles for a polygon follow the formula,
a)
.
.
b)
.
.
c)
<--- Not an integer
You could have also guessed that since a triangle (3 sides) has an interior angle of 60 and a square (4 sides) has an interior of 90, a value between 60 and 90 would not work.
.
.
d)
<--- Not an integer
You could have also guessed since a triangle has the fewest sides and it's interior angle is 60. So any angle less than 60 would not work.
.
Only a and b are valid interior angles.
