A polygon with 16 sides is called a hexadecagon.

Step1: Get the total angle in a 16-sided polygon

To get the measure of the interior angle of a polygon, we will use the relationship below:


(n-2)*180

In our case, n= 16 because it is 16 sided (hexadecagon)

=>


(16-2)*180=14*180=2520^0

Step 2: Find the measure of each interior angle

This will be achieved by dividing the total angle by the number of sides (16)


(2520^0)/(16)=157.5^0

Answer = 157.5

Option D is co
