Answer:

The measure of the exterior angle is 18. 95 Degrees.

Explanation:

Step 1:

Given data:

Let us assume ‘I’ as interior angle of Regular polygon and ‘E’ as Exterior angle of Regular Polygon.

Exterior angle for Regular polygon is 19 sides.

By the formula:


I=(180(n-2))/(n) degrees. ------1.n(s) is the side of polygon.

Step 2:

Substitute the value of n in the given formula. Where n=19 from the given data


I=(180(n-2))/(n)degrees

Step 3:


\begin{array}{l}{I=(180(19-2))/(19) \text { degrees }} \\ {I=(180(17))/(19) \text { degrees }}\end{array}

I = 3060/19

I = 161.05 degrees.

Step 4:

Measure of the exterior angles of a regular polygon is given by the formula:

E= 360 / n degrees. ----- n(s) side of polygon.

From the given data n are 19.

E = 360 / 19

E= 18. 95 Degrees.

Answer:
18.94\°

Explanation:

The exterior angle of a regular polygon of
n sides is given by:


(360\°)/(n)

In the case of a 19-side polygon
n=19

Hence:


(360\°)/(19)=18.94\°
