Once you know the sum, you can divide that by 12 to get the measure of each interior angle:
1800°/12 = 150°
This means each side intersects the next side only 30° less than a straight line! That is one of two reasons drawing a regular dodecagon freehand is so difficult. The other reason is the difficulty of drawing 12 equal-length sides.
