One angle of a regular polygon is `168^(circ)`. How many sides dóes it have?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

If one outer angle be `6^(circ)`, then the number of sides `=360^(circ)/6=60 .` This is a whole nümber. That is `360^(circ)` is the multiple of 6 . Therefore we can draw-a regular polygon with each outer angle `6^(circ) .` What about `7^(circ) ?` 360 is nót a multiple of `7^(circ)`. So, we cảnnọt draw a regulảr polygon with .each angle `7^(circ)`.
