The exterior angle of a polygon is related to the number of sides it has. The formula for the exterior angle of a regular polygon is ( \text{Exterior Angle} = \frac{360}{n} ), where ( n ) is the number of sides. If the exterior angle is 72 degrees, then ( n = \frac{360}{72} = 5 ). Therefore, the polygon is a regular pentagon, which has five sides.
If it's a regular polygon and each exterior angle measures 72 degrees then it is a pentagon which has 5 sides

Each exterior angle is 72 degrees
Sum of exterior angles of any polygon is 360 degrees. So each being 72 degrees implies that there are 360/72 = 5 of them ie you have a regular pentagon.
360/72 = 5

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.
