Step-by-step explanation:
Given :-
Each interior angle of a polygon is 180°
To find :-
Find the number of sides of the polygon ?
Solution:-
A regular polygon will never ever have an interior angle greater than or equal to 180°.
Check:-
Let the number of sides of the polygon be 'n'
We know that
The interior angle of a regular polygon of n sides
= [(n-2)/n]×180°
According to the given problem
Each interior angle of the polygon = 180°
=> [(n-2)/n]×180° = 180°
=> (n-2)/n = 180°/180°
=> (n-2)/n = 1
=> n-2 = 1×n
=> n-2 = n
=> n-n = 2
=> 0 = 2
But this is not true
So, We get contradiction.
Answer :-
A regular polygon will never ever have an interior angle greater than or equal to 180°.
Used formulae:-
The interior angle of a regular polygon of n sides
= [(n-2)/n]×180°
