for correct answers)
a) How many sides does it have?
b) What is the sum of the interior angles?
c) What is the measure of one of its exterior angles?

Respuesta :

Answer:

a) 40 sides

b) 6840

c) 9 gegrees

Step-by-step explanation:

interior angle= (n-2)180

n

[tex] (n - 2)180 \div n = 171 \\ 180n - 360 = 171n \\ 180n - 171n = 360 \\ 9n = 360 \\ n = 360 \div 9 = 40 \\ [/tex]

so total number of sides is 40

b) Sum of interior angles= (n-2)×180

(40-2)×180

38×180

6840

c) Exterior angle = 360 ÷ n

360÷40 =9 degree
