Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
sum of interior angles of a polygon=180(n-2)
interior angle=180(n-2)/n
sum of exterior angles of polygon=360 degree
exterior angle=360/n
exterior angle/interior angle=1/5
(360/n)/(180(n-2)/n)=1/5
cancelling both 'n's at the denominators
and by cancelling 360 and 180 we get
2/n-2=1/5
10=n-2 (by interchanging)
n=12
hope this helped u!!!✌
