= 45
no of sides = 360/ 45
= 8 sides

Question :-
find the number of sides if each interior angle of a regular polygon is 135 degree ?
Answer :-
the sum of the interior angle of a p-sided polygon is (p-2)×180°
so each angle of a regular P sided polygon is (p-2)/p×180°
So,
let n be the number of sides of a regular polygon whose interior angle are each 135 degree .
Now,
(n-2)n×180°
=> (n-2)/n×180°/180° =135°/180°
=> (n-2)/n=135°/180°
=> (n-2)/n= 3/4
=> n-2 /n×n =3/4n
=> n-2= 3/4n
=> n-2-3/4n+2=3/4n-3/4n+2
=> (1-3/4n)=2
=> (4/4-3/4)n= 2
=> (4-3)/4×n=2
So,
=> 1/4n=2
=> 1/4n×4=2×4
=> n= 8
So,p=8
Verification :-
(p-2)/p×180
=> (8-2)/8×180
=> 6/8×180
=> 3/4×180
=> 135°
Thanks
