Question

in a regular polygon, each interior angle is twice the exterior angle. the number of sides of the polygon is _________​

Answer 1

Answer:

8 or OCTAGON

Step-by-step explanation:

Concept : Sum of Interior angle + Sum of Exterior angle = 180°

Let the interior angle be 'x'

=> Exterior angle = 3 * Interior angle = 3 x

=> x + 3x = 180°

=> 4x = 180°

=> x = 180 / 4

=> x = 45°

We also know that,

Exterior angle = 360° / n

Where n represents the number of sides of a polygon.

=> n = 360° / Exterior angle

=> n = 360° / 45°

=> n = 8

Hence it is a 8 sided polygon which is an octagon.

Answer 2

Answer:6

explanation: In a regular polygon, each interior angle is twice the exterior angle. the number of sides of the polygon is 6
