Q:
The Interior Angle Of Regular Polygon Exceeds Its Exterior Angle By 108. How Many Sides Does The Polygon Have?
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
A:
Let x = measure of each exterior angle
So x + 108 = measure of each interior angle
x + (x + 108) = 180
2x + 108 = 180
2x = 72
x = 36
The number of sides is equal to 360/36 = sides
