Restate the question: how do you find the number of sides in a regular polygon if you know the measure of an interior angle?

(If this is not your question, please resubmit the question with different wording.)

Subtract the interior angle from 180 deg - for example 180-160 = 20. Now divide 360 by this value: 360/20 = 18.

A regular polygon with interior angles of 160 degrees has 18 sides.

How do you work out the exterior and interior angles of a regular polygon with W sides?

Exterior angle regular polygon = 360° ÷ number of sides = 360° ÷ W Interior angle regular polygon = 180° - exterior angle regular polygon = 180° - (360° ÷ number of sides ) = 180° - (360° ÷ W)

What is the rule to get the number of sides of a regular polygon when given the interior angle?

180-interior angle = exterior angle 360/exterior angle = number of sides


Is it possible for the interior angle of a regular polygon to be 154?

No. The sum of the exterior angles of a polygon sum to 360o For a regular polygon, they are all the same size ⇒ dividing 360o by the exterior angle gives the number of sides. Interior angle = 154o ⇒ exterior angle = 180o - 154o = 26o ⇒ number of sides = 360o ÷ 26o = 1311/13 sides But a polygon must have a whole number of sides ⇒ 154o cannot be the interior angle of a regular polygon.


Describe the measure of an interior angle of a regular polygon as a function of the number of sides of the polygon verbally?

Each interior angle of a regular polygon has a measure that is equal to one hundred and eighty degrees times two less than the number of sides in the polygon.
