Not with regular pentagons because each interior angle is 108 degrees which is not a factor of 360 degrees

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.

If the measure of one interior angle of a regular polygon is 108 how many sides does the regular polygon have?

To find the number of sides of a regular polygon, you can use the formula: Number of sides = 360 degrees ÷ Measure of each interior angle. In this case, if one interior angle is 108 degrees, the regular polygon has 360 ÷ 108 = 3.33 sides. Since a polygon cannot have a fractional number of sides, we round down to the nearest whole number. Therefore, the regular polygon has 3 sides, which makes it an equilateral triangle.


What are the angles-in degrees-of a regular pentagon?

108 degrees determined by the formula 180(sides - 2) / sides remember that


Why cant a regular pentagon be used to create a regular tessellation?

it can tessellate * * * * * NO IT CANNOT! A regular polygon can be used to create a regular tesselation if and only if its interior angle divides 360 degrees. The interior angle of a regular pentagon is 108 degrees, which does not divide 360 degrees so it cannot be used for a regular tesselation. . Three pentagons meeting at a point would cover 3*108 = 324 degrees - not enough to cover the 360 degrees at a point. Meanwhile 4 pentagons would cover 4*108 = 432 degrees - resulting in a 72 degree overlap.


Why can't regular pentagons tesselate?

Because the measure of each angle in a pentagon is 108 degrees, which 360 can't be divided evenly by, so pentagons don't tessellate because their is always a little extra space left over.


How many sides does a polygon with an interior angle measure of 108 degrees have?

If its a regular pentagon then it will have 5 sides


How many degrees do a 5 sided shape has?

If all sides have equal length (i.e. if it is a regular pentagon), then each (interior) angle has 108 degrees, for a total of 5*(108 degrees) = 540 degrees.
