Circle's degrees cannot are not comparative to all polygon's?

[Mattius_]

Ok, degrees measured in a circle are measured from the center, the inside. A square's, for example, is not measured from the center; if this were the case, all polygons would be 360 degrees. Polygons are measured from the points at which lines intersect, making the degrees given to a circle, and the degrees given to a square different. Polygons are given their degree labels at all sides facing the middle, not away.

Any other thoughts on this, other than my learning disabilities?

Arrange 4 squares such that they all intersect at a single corner.

Draw a circle around said corner.

Voila, degrees in a square's angle.

Yes ofcourse and so does any other tesselation when combined, but doesn't it strike anyone that a circle is measured by the degress it puts away from its center?

What strikes me is that I don't understand that sentence in the slightest. How does something 'put' things anywhere, especially *its* degrees?
