Question 527040: How many sides does a regular polygon have if each exterior angle equals 30 degrees
Answer by jim_thompson5910(35256) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
The sum of all the exterior angles is 360 degrees
So this means that if there are n sides, then 30n = 360
Solve for n to get
30n = 360
n = 360/30
n = 12
So there are 12 sides
