If \(P\) is a \(d\)-polytope and \(F\) is a face of \(P\), then the interior angle \(\alpha(F,P)\) is that proportion of a sufficiently small ball centred at a relative interior point of \(F\) which is contained in \(P\). Thus \(\alpha(P,P) = 1\), and \(\alpha(F,P) = \frac12\) if \(F\) is a facet of \(P\). Denote by \(\alpha_i(P) = \sum\{\alpha(F,P) \mid F \text{ an }i\)-face of
