The measure of an interior angle of a regular polygon is given by:
where n=number of sides
So for a dodecagon (regular 12-sided polygon)
The interior angles measure 150 degrees.
Since interior and exterior angles are supplementary:
180 degrees-150 degrees=30 degrees The exterior angles are 30 degrees
The ratio of interior:exterior angles is 5:1 for a dodecagon.
