 Internal angle - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In geometry, an internal angle (or interior angle) is an angle formed by two sides of a simple polygon that share an endpoint, namely, the angle on the inner side of the polygon.
The sum of the internal angles of a polygon on a Euclidean plane with n vertices (or equivalently, n sides) is (n − 2)180 degrees.
Internal angles may also refer to the angles within the two parallel lines which are intersected by a transversal.

An exterior angle on a polygon is formed by extending one of the sides of the polygon outside of the polygon, thus creating an angle supplementary to the interior angle at that vertex.
As a result, the interior angles of a regular polygon are all equal to 180 degrees minus the measure of the exterior angle(s).

Angle Trisector - A ray, one of a pair, that shares a common vertex with an angle, lies within the interior of that angle, and creates, with its partner, three new angles of equal measure.
