Any polygon of 'n' sides has 'n' exterior angles
The sum of all exterior angles for any convex polygon is always 360 degree
For a regular polygon, each exterior angle will be 360/n
The interior angle for any regular convex polygon is: 180- (360/n)
The interior angles of
Regular pentagon= 180-(360/5)=108 degree
Regular Hexagon=180-(360/6)=120 degree
