Answer

$m$ of the interior angles in a 15-gon = $2340^{\circ}$

Work Step by Step

According to the Polygon Angle-Sum Theorem, the sum of all the measures of the interior angles of a polygon is $(n - 2)180$, where $n$ is the number of sides in the polygon. We have a polygon with $15$ sides. Let's find out what is the sum of the measures of all the interior angles in this polygon by using this formula: $m$ of the interior angles in a 15-gon = $(15 - 2)180$ Evaluate what is in parentheses first, according to order of operations: $m$ of the interior angles in a 15-gon = $(13)180$ Multiply to solve: $m$ of the interior angles in a 15-gon = $2340^{\circ}$
