The formula S = 180(n − 2) can be used to determine that the
sum of the interior angles of this polygon is 540. Right angles
measure 90° each, so subtracting the sum of the three right
angles from 540° leaves 270° for the two remaining congruent
angles. Congruent angles are angles with equal measures, so
dividing 270°/2 yields 135° for each angle, which is larger than the
value in column B (130°). The answer, therefore, is a.
