Given:-

  • There is a regular 28 sided polygon.

To find:-

  • The measure of each exterior angle .

Answer :-

As we know that the sum of exterior angles of a polygon is 360° . Say if there are
n sides , then the measure of exterior angle is ,


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

and here,


  • n = 28

So the measure of an exterior angle would be ,


\implies (360^\circ)/(28)\\


\implies \boxed{ 12.857^\circ} \\

Hence the measure of an exterior angle is 12.857° .

and we are done!
