A regular dodecagon P_1 P_2 P_3 \dotsb P_{12} is inscribed in a circle with radius $1.$ Compute \[(P_1 P_2)^2 + (P_1 P_3)^2 + \dots + (P_{11} P_{12})^2.\](The sum includes all terms of the form $(P_i P_j)^2,$ where $1 \le i < j \le 12.$)

There are 12 digaonals that have a length of P_1 P_2, which from the Sine Law, is sin (15 degrees).  There are 12 diagonals that have a legnth of P_1 P_3, which from the Sine Law, is sin (30 degrees).  We can appy the same reasoning to the other diagonals, which gives us a total sum of

(12 sin 15)^2 + (12 sin 30)^2 + (12 sin 45)^2 + (12 sin 60)^2 + (12 sin 75)^2 + (12 sin 90)^2 + (12 sin 105)^2 + (12 sin 120)^2 + (12 sin 135)^2 + (12 sin 150)^2 + (12 sin 175)^2 = 320.
