Answer:
(a) Sum of angles of an n sided polygon = (n – 2) × 180°
Given, (n – 2) × 180° = n × 90°
=> 2(n – 2) = n
=> 2n – 4 = n
=> n = 4
(b) Each interior angle of a regular polygon of n sides
(n – 2)/n × 180°
=> (n – 2)n × 180° = 110°
=> 180°n – 360° = 110°n
=> 70°n = 360°
=> n = 360°/70°
It is not a whole number. Hence the given angle cannot be the interior angle of a regular polygon.
(c) Interior angle of a regular polygon with 180 sides
(180 – 2)/180 × 180°
= 178 × 1°
= 178°.
(d) Check as in option (b)
Hence option (b) is not correct.
