To find the measure of an exterior angle of a regular dodecagon, first find the measure of an interior angle then subtract this from 180 degrees.
The measure of an interior angle of a regular n-sided polygon is given by:

A dodecagon has 12 sides so n = 12.

degrees
The measure of an exterior angle is given by:
Substitute

degrees.
