The formula for the number of degrees in a polygon is 180*(N-2), where N is the number of sides.
Thus a triangle has 180 degrees, a square 360, and so on.

360 degrees...all the way around.

So an octagon is: 180*(8-2)
180*(6)
=1080 degrees
I don't get it?

Yep. There are a total of 1080 degrees in the eight angles of an octagon. If it is a regular octagon (all sides and angles equal) then 1080/8 is the measurement of each angle (135 degrees).

You are right. Thanks.
