Find the number of sides of a regular polygon if the measure of each interior angle is 17 times the measure of each exterior angle.
\n" ); document.write( "------
\n" ); document.write( "interior angle: 17x
\n" ); document.write( "exterior angle: x
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "Equation:
\n" ); document.write( "x + 17x = 180
\n" ); document.write( "18x = 180
\n" ); document.write( "x = 10 degrees
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "Sum of ALL the exterior angles is 360 degrees
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "# of exterior angles = 360/10 = 36
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "# of sides = # of exterior angles = 36
