2. Find the measure of each exterior angle of a regular polygon of:

(a) 9 sides

(b) 15 sides

Ans. (i) Sum of angles of a regular polygon =

=

Each interior angle =

Each exterior angle =

(ii) Sum of exterior angles of a regular polygon =

Each interior angle =

3. How many sides does a regular polygon have, if the measure of an exterior angle is

Ans. Let number of sides be

Sum of exterior angles of a regular polygon =

Number of sides =

Hence, the regular polygon has 15 sides.

4. How many sides does a regular polygon have if each of its interior angles is

Ans. Let number of sides be

Exterior angle =

Sum of exterior angles of a regular polygon =

Number of sides =

Hence, the regular polygon has 24 sides.

5. (a) Is it possible to have a regular polygon with of each exterior angle as

(b) Can it be an interior angle of a regular polygon? Why?

Ans. (a) No. (Since 22 is not a divisor of )

(b) No, (Because each exterior angle is  which is not a divisor of )

6. (a) What is the minimum interior angle possible for a regular polygon? Why?

(b) What is the maximum exterior angle possible for a regular polygon?

Ans. (a) The equilateral triangle being a regular polygon of 3 sides has the least measure of an

interior angle of {tex}{{60}^{\circ }}.{/tex}

{tex}\because {/tex} Sum of all the angles of a triangle

= {tex}180{}^\circ {/tex}

{tex}\therefore {/tex} 

 

 

(b) By (a), we can observe that the greatest exterior angle is
