1) How do you find the sum of the exterior angle measures of any convex polygon?

2) If the polygon is regular, how do you find the measure of each exterior angle in the polygon?

Answer:

1) sum of all convex polygons' EXTERIOR ANGLES IS ALWAYS 360 DEGREES. If it is a triangle or even if it is a 25- gon.

2) if the polygon is regular then this means all of the sides are equal and all of the angles are equal to each other.

for example: Find the measure of an exterior angle of a REGULAR HEXAGON. so a regular hexagon has 6 sides all the same length and 6 exterior angles all the same measures. so to find the measure of 1 exterior angle you do 360 degrees /6 = 60 degrees. so an exterior angle of a regular hexagon is 60 degrees.
