1. **Problem:** In a pentagonal garden, the exterior angle at one corner measures 50°. Find the interior angle at that corner.
2. **Problem:** In a decagonal plaza, the exterior angle at a corner is 36°. Find the interior angle at that corner.
3. **Problem:** In a hexagonal courtyard, the exterior angle at a corner is 80°. Find the interior angle at that corner.

**Step 1: Understand the relationship between interior and exterior angles of polygons.**
The interior angle and exterior angle at any vertex of a polygon are supplementary, meaning they add up to 180°.
Formula:
$$\text{Interior angle} + \text{Exterior angle} = 180^\circ$$
This is because the exterior angle is formed by extending one side of the polygon, creating a linear pair with the interior angle.

**Step 2: Calculate the interior angles for each polygon using the formula.**
**For the pentagonal garden:**
$$\text{Interior angle} = 180^\circ - 50^\circ = 130^\circ$$
**For the decagonal plaza:**
$$\text{Interior angle} = 180^\circ - 36^\circ = 144^\circ$$
**For the hexagonal courtyard:**
$$\text{Interior angle} = 180^\circ - 80^\circ = 100^\circ$$
---
**Final answers:**
1. The interior angle at the pentagonal garden corner is $130^\circ$.
2. The interior angle at the decagonal plaza corner is $144^\circ$.
3. The interior angle at the hexagonal courtyard corner is $100^\circ$.
