if the polygon is regular and each interior angle measure is 160, how many sides does the polygon have?
------
each exterior angle is 180-160 = 20 degrees
--------------
The sum of all of the exterior angles is 360 degrees.
----
The number of exterior angles is 360/20 = 18.
----
Therefore, the number of sides is 18.
