Question

How many sides does a regular polygon have if each interior angle measures 176^{\circ}
∘

Answer 1

Answer:

• 90 sides

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a relationship between number of sides and interior angle measure of regular polygons:

• S = 180(n - 2), where S- sum of interior angles, n - number of sides

We have now:

• 176n = 180(n - 2)
• 176n = 180n - 360
• 4n = 360
• n = 90

Answer 2

It's equilateral polygon

• Sum of interior angles=176n.

n is no of sides

$\\ \sf\longmapsto (2n-4)90=176n$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 180n-360=176n$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 180n-176n=360$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 4n=360$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto n=4$
