To determine the number of sides ( n ) in a polygon with 252 diagonals, we use the formula for the number of diagonals in a polygon: ( D = \frac{n(n-3)}{2} ). Setting this equal to 252 gives us the equation ( \frac{n(n-3)}{2} = 252 ). Solving this leads to ( n(n-3) = 504 ), or ( n^2 - 3n - 504 = 0 ). The positive solution to this quadratic equation is ( n = 24 ), so the polygon has 24 sides.

How many diagonals are there in a 25-gon?
1/2*(252-75) = 275 diagonals
How many diagonals does a 24 side polygon have?
(n x n - 3n)/2 (24 x 24 - 3x24)/2 (576 - 72)/2 504/2 = 252
How many sides does a regular polygon have if each exterior angle is 2520 degrees?
An exterior angle of 2520 degrees is impossible. Assuming you mean 252 degrees, this would make each interior angle 108 degrees, as 360- 252 = 108. A regular polygon with 108-degree interior angles has 5 sides, or in other words, it is a regular pentagon.
What is 252 over 1000 reduced?
252 / 1,000 = 63 / 250 by dividing both sides by 4
