The sum of the exterior angles of a polygon is 360°

If they are all the same (as the figure is regular) then:

360° = number_of_side × exterior_angle

→ number_of_sides = 360° ÷ exterior_angle

And each is 60°, then

number_of_sides = 360° ÷ 60° = 6

The polygon has 6 sides - it is a hexagon.

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.
