The measure of an exterior angle of a regular 7-sided polygon is 51.4° to the nearest tenth degree
Step-by-step explanation:
In any regular polygon:
- The length of all sides are equal
- The measures of all angles are equal
- The measure of each interior angle = [tex]\frac{(n-2)*180}{n}[/tex], where n is the number of its sides
- The measure of each exterior angle = [tex]\frac{360}{n}[/tex]
- The interior angle and its exterior angle at one of its vertices are supplementary
∵ The polygon is regular with 7-sides
∴ n = 7
∵ The measure of an exterior angle = [tex]\frac{360}{n}[/tex]
- Substitute n by 7 in the rule above
∴ The measure of an exterior angle = [tex]\frac{360}{7}[/tex]
∴ The measure of an exterior angle = 51.42857 degrees
- Round it to the nearest tenth degree
∴ The measure of an exterior angle = 51.4° → to the nearest tenth degree
The measure of an exterior angle of a regular 7-sided polygon is 51.4° to the nearest tenth degree
