Question

find the measure of each exterior angle and each interior angle of a regular hexagon

Answer 1

Remember : The interior angle and its corresponding exterior angle always add up to 180° (for a hexagon, 120° + 60° = 180°). Calculate the exterior angle of a regular octagon, and write down the value of the interior angle. The sum of the exterior and interior angles is 180°, so the interior angle is 180 - 45 = 135°.

Answer 2

Regular hexagons interior angle sum using the formula (n-2) × 180 = (6-2)×180 = 4 × 180° = 720°

every interior angle then would be 720/6 = 120°


Now exterior angles are always 360°
so all angles = 360/6 = 60°
