pentagon because it has an obtuse angle and a square has right angles
- Actually, a regular pentagon has larger interiorangles, however, for exterior angles, a square beats a regular pentagon, because all exterior angles of a shape equals 360 degrees. A square has 4 angles, and 360/4= 90. A regular pentagon has 5 angles, and 360/5=72. If the pentagon isn't regular, then one exterior angle can be larger than 90 degrees.

Which of these two regular polygons has the larger interior angle pentagon or square?
Each vertex angle of a polygon is composed of an external angle and an interior angle. These two angles are supplementary (total 180°). As the number of sides of a regular polygon increases then the external angle decreases and conversely, the interior angle increases. The interior angle of a regular pentagon (108°) is larger than the interior angle of a square (90°).
What to regular polygons has a larger exterior angle?
An equilateral triangle is the only polygon in which the exterior angle is larger than the interior angle. They are equal in a square and smaller in all regular polygons with more sides,
What polygon can be a face of a Platonic solid?
A triangle, square or pentagon.
What polygon is always a regular polygon?
A square, pentagon, decagon, octagon are always regular polygons.
Which of these two regular polygons has the larger exterior angle?
A+:Squaretriangle* * * * *More like Z-.A square does not have a larger exterior angle than an interior one - they are both 90 degrees. The ONLY regular polygon with the required property is an equilateral triangle.
Does a square have a larger exterior angle the a pentagon?
Exterior angle of a square is 90 degrees Exterior angle of a regular pentagon is 72 degrees
Which of these two regular polygons has the larger exterior angle Square Or Pentagon?
Square = 90 degrees Pentagon = 72 degrees
Which of these two regular polygons has the larger interior angle pentagon or square?
