Question

What is the maximum exterior angle possible for a regular polygon and why? Please please answer, I searched it in Google and could not understand.​

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is 120 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because:

The polygon with the least sides is three which is a triangle.

And we know that total degrees of an exterior angle is 360 degrees.

So it will x+x+x= 360 and it can't be only two x's because a polygon can't have only two side and minimum sides possible is 3.

So,

x+x+x = 360

3x = 360

x = 360 divided by 3

x = 120 degrees

Answer 2

Answer:

120

Step-by-step explanation:

Exterior +interior angle =180

Exterior angle is max when interior angle is min

This is possible when the polygon is equilateral triangle.. (when no of sides is minimum)

For equ triangle the interior angle is 60

Therefore exterior angle will be 120 each
