Answer:
Step-by-step explanation: Let the exterior angle be x and Interior angle be 5x
Therefore,
5x + x=180° [linear pair]
⇒ x=[180/6]°
⇒x =30°
(i) Measure of the exterior angle is x=30°
(ii) measure of each interior angle is 5x=5 x 30°=150°
(iii) 360°/x where x is the measure of each exterior angle , gives us the no.of sides
Therefore,
360° ÷ 30°=12
12 sides
