Take a regular hexagon as shown in the figures:
Repeat this activity for the cases of (i)A regular octagon
How many sides does a regular polygon have if the measure of an exterior angle is 24°?
5. (a) Is it possible to have a regular polygon with measure of each exterior angle is 22°?
Each exterior angle =
∴ Number of sides =
Which is not a whole number.
If it is a regular polygon, then its number of sides must be a whole number.
Here, is not a whole number.
∴ cannot be an exterior angle of a regular polgon.
