Answer to Problem 10ST2

In a regular decagon, the sum of the measures of the exterior angles is 36° and the measure of each interior angle is 324°

Explanation of Solution

Given information: Name of given polygon is regular decagon

First find measure of each exterior angle.

Le n denotes number of sides of a regular decagon.

Number of sides in a regular decagon (n)=10

Consider the following figure of decagon.

  McDougal Littell Jurgensen Geometry: Student Edition Geometry, Chapter 3.6, Problem 10ST2

This figure consists of 10 triangles. According to angle sum property, sum of angles of a triangle is 180° .

So,

Sum of angles in 10 triangles is equal to 180°×10=1800°

Sum of angles at the center of the decagon forms a complete angle that is angle equal to 360°

So,

Sum of interior angles of a decagon is equal to 1800°360°=1440°

Now,

Measure of each interior angle is equal to sum of interior angles divided by number of sides

Measure of each interior angle is equal to 1440°10=144°

To find measure of each exterior angle, use the following formula.

Measure of each exterior angle =360°n

Put n=10

So,

Measure of each exterior angle =360°10=36°
