Question
Is it possible to have a regular polygon whose exterior angle is: 36°
Advertisements
Solution
Let no. of. sides = n
Each exterior angle = 36°
= `360^circ/"n" = 36^circ`
∴ n = `360^circ/36^circ`
n = 10
Which is a whole number.
Hence, it is not possible to have a regular polygon whose each exterior angle is 36°.
