In a certain regular polygon, the measure of each interior angle is 2 times the measure of each exterior angle. Find the number of sides in this regular polygon. The exterior angles of any polygon, sum to. Therefore, each exterior angle of any regular polygon will be , with n being the number of sides Since it's stated that each interior angle is TWICE each exterior angle, then each interior angle of this regular polygon = = . Since the 2 angles (interior and exterior) are on a straight line, they are supplementary. This gives us: 360 + 720 = 180n ---- Multiplying by LCD, n 1,080 = 180n Number of sides that this regular polygon contains, or The regular polygon contains 6 sides, and is therefore, a regular HEXAGON! OR Let each exterior angle, be E Then each interior angle = 2E As these 2 angles are supplementary, we get: E + 2E = 180 3E = 180 Measure of each exterior angle of this regular polygon, or E = . As each exterior angle is , and the sum of the exterior angles of any polygon is , number of sides of this polygon = With 6 sides, this makes this a regular HEXAGON!
