How to show that each interior angle of a regular pentagon is 108 degree.?

Draw 2 chords inside the pentagon to form 3 triangles. The sum of angles of each triangle is 180�, or 540� for all. That's the sum of all the interior angles of the pentagram, so divide 540� by 5 to get 108� for each interior angle.
