Question 700071: Why can't the central angle of a regular polygon be 25 degrees?
Answer by Edwin McCravy(20055) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Because there is no integer that 360° can be divided by that will
give 25°.
[It could be 24° because 360°/15 = 24°.
It could be 30° because 360°/12 = 30°
but no integer between those.
