I find the exterior angles to be easier to figure out. An exterior angle is the change in direction at a vertex as you go around the polygon. The sum of all the exterior angles is , a whole turn around the polygon, off course. For regular polygons, the angle is the same at each vertex.For a regular dodecagon, with vertices, each exterior angle measures, off course. Each interior angle is supplementary to an adjacent exterior angle, so in this case, each interior angle would measure . Just in case your teacher wants to see formulas, the reasoning above would give you for the measure of the exterior angle of an n-hon (a polygon with n sides), and for the measure of each interior angle. That last formula can also be thought as coming from the fact that all the interior angles add up to the angles of the triangles you can make by connecting one vertex (choose any) to the other vertices with straight lines.
