Question

The ratio of exterior angle to interior angle of a regular polygon is 1:4.Find the number of sides of the polygon

Answer 1

Let the interior angle of the regular polygon be x.
Therefore, the exterior angle is x/4.

Exterior angle + adjacent interior angle = 180°
x/4 + x. = 180°
5x /4. = 180°
x. = 180° * 4/5
= 144°

The interior angle is 144°.
The exterior angle is 36°.

Let n be the number of sides.

n = 360°/ exterior angle
= 360° / 36°
= 10

Ans.= The number of sides of a regular polygon is 10.

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:Let the interior angle of the regular polygon be x.

Therefore, the exterior angle is x/4.

Exterior angle + adjacent interior angle = 180°

x/4 + x. = 180°

5x /4. = 180°

x. = 180° * 4/5

= 144°

The interior angle is 144°.

The exterior angle is 36°.

Let n be the number of sides.

n = 360°/ exterior angle

= 360° / 36°

= 10

Ans.= The number of sides of a regular polygon is 10.
