Answer:

No, it is not possible.

Explanation:

The sum of the exterior angles = 360

360 divided by 22 = 16.36

As 16.36 is not a whole number an exterior angle of 22 degrees is not possible.

Answer:

No

Explanation:

Number of sides of a polygon = 360°/measure each exterior angle

= 360°/22

= 16.36°

Since, answer is not a whole number, thus, a regular polygon with measure of each exterior angle as 22⁰ is not possible.

Thus the answer is no.
