Hi mate,

PLEASE MARK ME AS BRAINLIEST

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum of all angles of a regular polygon with n sides = (n-2) × 180

Let a,a + d,a + 2d,a + 3d,a + 4d are 5 terms of an AP.

Sum of all angles = 5a + 10d = (5-2) × 180 = 540

∴ a + 2d = 108

The minimum angle will be obtained when a = d.

a + 2a = 3a = 108

∴ a = 36 is the minimum angle.
