A regular -gon is a polygon with equal sides and angles. What is the measure of each interior angle of a regular -gon? If necessary, round your answer to the nearest tenth. (Use the formula for each interior angle: where is the number of sides.)

Identify the number of sides of the regular polygon, which is given as \(n = 22\).
Recall the formula for the measure of each interior angle of a regular polygon:
\(\text{Interior Angle} = \frac{(n - 2) \times 180}{n}\)
Substitute \(n = 22\) into the formula:
\(\text{Interior Angle} = \frac{(22 - 2) \times 180}{22}\)
Simplify the numerator by calculating \((22 - 2) = 20\), so the expression becomes:
\(\text{Interior Angle} = \frac{20 \times 180}{22}\)
Calculate the fraction and multiply to find the measure of each interior angle, then round the result to the nearest tenth if necessary.
