<h3>Answer:</h3>
  • interior: 144°
  • exterior: 36°
<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

It may be easiest to remember that the sum of exterior angles of any convex polygon is always 360°.

Your decagon has a sum of exterior angles that is 360°. Since it is a regular 10-sided polygon, each one is 1/10 that value: 36°.

The measure of each exterior angle is 36°.

The measure of an interior angle is the supplement of the exterior angle. Each interior angle of the regular 10-sided polygon will be ...

... 180° -36° = 144°

The measure of each interior angle is 144°.

_____

A formula often used for the sum of the measures of the interior angles is ...

... interior angle total = (n -2)×180°

For a 10-sided figure, the interior angle total is ...

... (10 -2)×180° = 1440°

When this sum is divided into 10 equal angles, the measure of one interior angle is ...

... 1440°/10 = 144° . . . . . agrees with the above computation

The exterior angle measure is the supplement of this:

... 180° -144° = 36° . . . . . exterior angle measure; agrees with the above computation

How many different ways can 3 singers be selected from 5 who came to an audition
abruzzese [7]

This is known as "5 take 3", where ordering is not important.

\binom{5}{3} = \frac{5!}{3!(5-3)!} = \frac{120}{6\cdot2} = 10
