how many sides does a polygon have if the measure of an exterior angle is 40 degree?
If it's a regular polygon (all Ext angles = 40), n = 360/40
n = 9 sides
=========================
How many sides does a polygon have if an interior angle measures 172 degrees?
If it's regular,
Ext angles = 8 degrees
n= 360/8 sides
