The sum of the exterior angles is 360. So we have 360/n= 72 or 72n=360 from which we see n=360/72=5 So it is a pentagon! Dr. Chuck

How many sides does a regular polygon have if its exterior angles are 30 degrees?

A regular polygon with exterior angles of 30 degrees has: 360/30 = 12 sides


If the exterior angle of a regular polygon is 108 degrees how many sides does the polygon have?

That's true if the interior angles are 108 degrees, but a regular polygon cannot have exterior angles of 108 degrees.


Can a regular polygon have an exterior angle with 100 degrees?

No.


If the exterior angle of a regular polygon equals 72 degrees what is the shape of the polygon?

The sum of all exterior angles of a polygon is 360 degrees. In a regular polygon, all of the exterior angle are equal, so there must be 360/72=5 sides of the polygon, which makes it a pentagon.


How many sides does a regular polygon have with an exterior angle measure of 1?

A regular polygon will have 360 sides with exterior angles of 181 degrees.


What is the measure ofr a regular polygon with an exterior angle of 18.95?

There can be no such polygon. The sum of the exterior angles of ANY polygon is 360 degrees. If it is a regular polygon, then the number of angles MUST divide 360 degrees. Since 18.95 does not divide 360, there cannot be such a polygon. If the exterior angle was 18.94737... degrees, it would be a 19-sided polygon.


What is the exterior angle of a 9 sided polygon?

If its a regular 9 sided polygon then the exterior angles are 40 degrees.


What is the sum of the measures of the exterior angles of a regular polygon with ten sides?

The sum of the measures of the exterior angles of any polygon, regular or irregular, is always 360 degrees. In a regular polygon with ten sides, each exterior angle measures 360 degrees divided by the number of sides, which in this case is 36 degrees. Therefore, the sum of the measures of the exterior angles of a regular decagon is 10 multiplied by 36 degrees, which equals 360 degrees.
