If the exterior angle of a regular polygon is 7.2 degrees, what is the name of that polygon?
kirill [66]

A regular polygon with exterior angle of 7.2 degrees is a 50-gon.

<h3>Regular polygon</h3>

Regular polygon are polygon that are equiangular. This simply means they are polygon with equal angles.

The formula to find the number of sides of a polygon using exterior angle is as follows:

  • exterior angle = 360 / n

where

n = number of sides

Therefore,

7.2 = 360 / n

cross multiply

7.2n = 360

divide both sides by 7.2

n = 360 / 7.2

n = 50

The polygon has 50 sides. Therefore, it is a 50-gon
