Question

Which of the following can never be the measure of exterior angle of a regular polygon?

Options

  • 22°

  • 36°

  • 45°

  • 30°

MCQ

Solution

22°

Explanation:

Since, we know that, the sum of measures of exterior angles of a polygon is 360°, i.e. measure of each exterior angle = 360°/n, where n is the number of sides/angles.

Thus, measure of each exterior angle will always divide 360° completely.

Hence, 22° can never be the measure of exterior angle of a regular polygon.
