If the ratio of external angle and internal angle is 2 : 7. Find the number of sides of regular polygon?
Answer
Correct Answer : a ) 9
Explanation :According to the question
Let the common multiple be x
⇒ External angle = 2x
Internal angle = 7x
We know that
Sum of internal angle and external angle of any regular figure is 180°
⇒ 2x + 7x = 180°
⇒ x = 20°
Exterior angle = 2 * 20°
⇒ 40°
Number of side of a regular polygon=\(360^0 \over exterior \ angle\)
⇒Number of Side=\(360^0 \over 40^0\)
⇒ 9
Hence, (a) is the correct answer.
