The sum of all exterior angles of a polygon is 360°.
If the polygon has N sides, then 360/N represents the measure of one exterior angle.
The sum of the interior angles of a regular polygon of N sides is 180(N-2). Divide that expression by N to get a representation of the measure of a single interior angle: [180(N-2)]/N.
Each interior angle is 120 more than a single exterior angle:
[180(N-2)]/N = 360/N + 120
Multiply every term by N (N > 0):
180(N-2) = 360 +120N
180N - 360 = 120N + 360
60N = 720
N = 12
180(10) = 1800
