Answer:

Polygons can be separated into triangles by drawing all the diagonals that can be drawn from one single vertex. If you look back at the formula, you'll see that n – 2 gives the number of triangles in the polygon, and that number is multiplied by 180, the sum of the measures of all the interior angles in a triangle.
