                                                           Real World Example
         The sum of the measures of the interior
         angles is 1080°.                                   PICNIC TABLE

                                                            A picnic table in the park is a regular hexagon.
         Step 2 Divide the sum by 8 to find the measure of    What is the measure of one interior angle in the
                 one angle.                                 picnic table?
                 1080 ÷ 8 = 135                             A. 720°
                                                            B. 128.57°
                           So, the measure of one           C. 120°
