#720^circ#

First, we split the hexagon into 6 equal isoceles triangles, each have the angles (#60,theta,theta#) (#360/6=60#).

#theta=(180-60)/2=120/2=60#

#"Sum of internal angles"=6(120)=720^circ#

#720^0#

The internal sum of four triangles is #4 times 180^0#

Or, it can be directly calculated using direct formula,

#rarr(n-2)*180^@# where #n# is the number of sides of polygon.

In case of hexagon, #n=6#

So, internal angles sum#=(6-2)*180^@=4*180^@=540^@#
