We know that the sum of the exterior angles of any polygon in existence is equal to 360°.
Hence ,measure of each of the exterior angles of a regular octagon =360°/Number of angles
=360°/8
=45°
We also know that the sum of an exterior angle +its interior angle=180°.
Hence ,interior angle of the octagon=180°-exterior angle
=180°-45°
=135°
Ratio =135°:45°
=3:1
Answer-3:1 is the ratio of an angle of a regular octagon to its exterior angle.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Interior angle of a regular octagon = 135o
Exterior angle of a regular octagon = 45o
Required ratio = 135 /45
= 3:1
