Question

Each exterior angle of a regular hexagon is of

• A. ${120}^{\circ }$
• B. ${80}^{\circ }$
• C. ${100}^{\circ }$
• D. ${60}^{\circ }$

Answer 1

The correct option is D ${60}^{\circ }$

In a regular hexagon, all angles are of same measure(equiangular) and length of each side is same(equilateral).

Each interior angle of regular hexagon is ${60}^o$.

In every polygon, sum of interior angle and its corresponding exterior angle is ${180}^o$.

$\therefore$ Measure of exterior angle ${180}^o-{120}^o={60}^o$

Hence, each exterior angle of a regular hexagon is of ${60}^o$.
