The sum of the exterior angles if any polygon will always be equal to 360°, however the difference is that for a regular polygon each of its exterior angles has the same value.

to find the measure of an exterior angle in a regular polygon divide 360° into the number of sides


(360)/(n)

if the regular polygon has 12 sides


(360)/(12)=30
