Question 439014: is a 36-gon,14-gon, an 18-gon all regular polygons?
Answer by stanbon(75887)   (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! is a 36-gon,14-gon, an 18-gon all regular polygons?
---
Consider:
The sum of the exterior angles of a regular polygon
is always 360 degrees.
If a regular polygon has n sides, each exterior angle
will be 360/n.
---
360/36 will have 10 degree exterior angles
360/18 will have 20 degree exterior angles
But 360/14 would have to have exterior angles of 25.714286... degrees.
------------------
I'll leave the discussion of that to you.
Cheers,
Stan H.
