In a maths class the other day we were doing angles, and I realised that the total of all the interior angles sometimes = a monitor resolution. For example octagon (8-2)*180 = 1080, decagon (10-2) *180 = 1440, 14 sided shaper (14-2)*180 = 2160. I have no idea why this is and I was hoping someone could help me.

It's a coincidence.
