Find out if it is possible to have a regular polygon with each interior angle equal to 1500. (Enter 1 if possible, else 0)

Solution

The sum of measures in a convex polygon with 'n' sides is
S=180(n2)
When the polygon is regular, all of its angles are equal so to find the measure of one interior angle, we divide by n:
150=180(n2)n
150n=180n360
30n=360
n=12
This is an integer, so a regular polygon with 12 sides would have interior angles measuring 150.
Therefore correct answer is 1.
