What is the sum of the measures of the interior angles of a heptagon

OpenStudy (mertsj):

A heptagon has 7 sides and can be divided into 5 triangles. How many degrees in the angles of 1 triangle?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well don't all of the interior angles of a polygon add up to 360?

OpenStudy (mertsj):

That would be exterior

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh, right. My bad. Could we use the interior angles equation \[\frac{ (n-2) \times 180}{ n }\] where n is the amount of sides? All he/she would have to do is know how many sides a heptagon has?

Do you agree that all of the angles of those triangles make the 7 angles of the heptagon?
