Interior angle of polygon are in A.P.If the smallest angle is `120^@` and the common difference is `5^@`, find the number of sides of polygon.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Sum of interior angles of a `n`-sided polygon is `(n-2)**180`.
Now, we are given, angles are in AP such that ,
`a = 120 and d = 5`
`:. n/2(2a+(n-1)d) = (n-2)180`
`=> n/2(240+(n-1)5) = 180n-360`
`=>n(235+5n) = 360n-720`
`=>5n^2+235n-360n+720 = 0`
`=>5n^2-125n+720 = 0`
