Solution
The number of sides in a regular polygon having measure of an exterior angle as 72° is 5.
Explanation:
We know that, the sum of exterior angles of any polygon is 360°.
The number of sides in a regular polygon = `360^circ/"Exterior angle"`
∴ The number of sides in given polygon = `360^circ/72^circ` = 5
