Answer:

Exterior angle of an n-sided polygon = 360no
(i) For a pentagon: n=5  360n=3605=72o

(ii) For a hexagon: n=6  360n=3606=60o


(iii) For a heptagon: n=7  360n=3607=51.43o


(iv) For a decagon: n=10  360n=36010=36o

(v) For a polygon of 15 sides: n=15  360n=36015=24o

Answer:

Each exterior angle of an n-sided polygon = 360no
If the exterior angle is 50°, then:

 360n=50n=7.2

Since n is not an integer, we cannot have a polygon with each exterior angle equal to 50°.

Answer:

For a regular polygon with n sides:
Each interior angle = 180 - Each exterior angle=180-360n

(i) For a polygon with 10 sides:
  Each exterior angle = 36010=36o Each interior angle = 180-36=144o

(ii) For a polygon with 15 sides:
   Each exterior angle = 36015=24o Each interior angle = 180-24=156o

Answer:

Each interior angle of a regular polygon having n sides = 180 - 360n=180n-360n

If each interior angle of the polygon is 100°, then:

100 =180n-360n 100n = 180n - 360 180n-100n=360  80n=360  n=36080=4.5

Since n is not an integer, it is not possible to have a regular polygon with each interior angle equal to 100°.

Answer:

Sum of the interior angles of an n-sided polygon = n-2×180°

(i) For a pentagon:
n=5 n-2×180°=5-2×180°=3×180° = 540°

(ii) For a hexagon:
 n=6 n-2×180°=6-2×180°=4×180° = 720°

(iii) For a nonagon:
n=9 n-2×180°=9-2×180°=7×180° = 1260°

(iv) For a polygon of 12 sides:
n=12 n-2×180°=12-2×180°=10×180° = 1800°

Answer:

Number of diagonal in an n-sided polygon = nn-32
(i) For a heptagon:

 n=7nn-32=77-32=282=14

(ii) For an octagon:

 n=8nn-32=88-32=402=20

(iii) For a 12-sided polygon:

 n=12nn-32=1212-32=1082=54

Answer:

For a regular n-sided polygon:
Each interior angle = 180-360n
In the given figure:
   n=5 x° = 180-3605     =180-72     =108o
∴ x = 108
