A regular polygon has each interior angle is 156°, what is the number of sides of the polygon? A. 14 C. 16 B. 15 D. 17​

Answer:

option B is correct

interior angle of given polygon =156

exterior angle of polygon=180 - 156 =24

as we know that sum of exterior angle of any polygon is 360 degree

so number of sides of regular polygon=360/24=15

Answer:

option B. 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum of interior angles of a polygon with n sides  =  ( n - 2 ) x 180°

Therefore each interior angle,

                                  [tex]\frac{n - 2}{n} \times 180^\circ[/tex]

Given the interior angles = 156°

That is ,

                         [tex](\frac{n-2}{n}) \times 180 = 156\\\\\frac{n-2}{n} = \frac{156}{180}\\\\1- \frac{2}{n} = \frac{156}{180}\\\\1 - \frac{156}{180} = \frac{2}{n}\\\\\frac{180-156}{180} = \frac{2}{n}\\\\\frac{24}{180} = \frac{2}{n}\\\\24 \times n = 2 \times 180\\\\n = \frac{2 \times 180}{24} =\frac{180}{12} = 15[/tex]
