72 degrees
Since it's a regular polygon with 5 sides, you divide 360 by 5. You'd end up with 72. Hope this helps

The angles of a regular pentagon add up to 180°. So, you can set up this equation:
[tex]5x = 360[/tex]

And then solve for x:
[tex]x = \frac{360}{5} = 72 [/tex]

So, the interior angle is equal to 72°.
