Question

Use less than, equal to, or greater than to complete this statement: The measure of each exterior angle of a regular 5-gon is ____ the measure of each exterior angle of a regular 4-gon.

Answer 1

"less than"

Explanation:

The formula to find measure of each exterior angle of an n-gon is:

Each exterior = 360/n, where n is number of sides

For 5-gon, we get 360/5=72 degrees

For 4-gon, we get 360/4 = 90 degrees

Hence, the measure of each exterion of 5-gon is less than measure of each exterior of 4-gon
