Question

3) Calculate the size of each exterior angle in:

Answer 1

Answer:

40° and 9°

Step-by-step explanation:

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

If the polygon is regular then the measure of each exterior angle is

$\frac{360}{n}$ ← where n is the number of sides

(a) for a regular 9 sided polygon

exterior angle = $\frac{360}{9}$ = 40°

(b) for a regular 40 sided polygon

exterior angle = $\frac{360}{40}$ = 9°
