To find the measure of each exterior angle of a regular 15-gon:

Using the sum of exterior angle formula,

Each exterior angle of a regular polygon of n sides is given by,


(360^(\circ))/(n)

Substitute n=15 we get,


(360^(\circ))/(15)=24^(\circ)

Thus, the measure of each exterior angle of a regular 15-gon is 24 degrees.
