In a a regular polygon each interior angle is greater than by 120° than each exterior angle how many sides doea the polygon have
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
Each interior angle of a regular polygon is 120 degrees greater than each exterior angle. How many sides are there in the polygon? Since the sum of the measures of all the exterior angles of a polygon = 360, the polygon has 360/30 = 12 sides.

Answer:
12 sides
Step-by-step explanation:
Let each exterior angle be A. Then each interior angle will be 120 + A.
The sum of an exterior and its corresponding interior angle is 180o.
Therefore, A + (120 + A) = 180 => A = 30.
From key formula 2, sum of the exterior angles of a convex polygon = 360.
i.e., if the polygon has 'n' sides, then n × A = 360
Number of sides of the regular polygon, n = 360measure of one exterior angle360measure of one exterior angle = 360 ÷ 30 = 12 sides.
