Problem
What is the sum of the measures of the interior angles of a hexagon?
Step-by-step solution
The sum of the interior angles of a polygon with n sides is given by the formula $(n-2) \times 180$ degrees. For a hexagon, $n=6$. So, the sum is $(6-2) \times 180 = 4 \times 180 = 720$ degrees.
Answer
$720^{\circ}$
