interior angle = 7t
exterior angle = 2t
7t+2t=180 angle sum property
9t=180
t=20
so it shows that exterior angle = t2
so on substituting the value of t we get exterior angle = 40
so
no of sides = 360 / exterior angle
no of sides = 360/40 = 9
so it has 9 sides

Interior angle is 7x
Interior angle is 2x
So, 7x+2x= 9x = 180
x= 20
exterior angle = 2*20 = 40
So, number of sides is 360/40 = 9
