Find the measures of each exterior angle of a regular Hexagon
Open in App
Solution
In a regular hexagon, all sides are same size and measure of all interior angles are same.
The sum of interior angles of a regular polygon is given by (n−2)×180o where n is number of sides of polygon.
Sum of interior anles =(6−2)×180o=720o here n=6 (because hexa means 6)
Each interior angle =720/6=120o As we know that the sum of interior and exterior angles is 180o Exterior angle + interior angle =180o Exterior angle +120o=180o Exterior angle =180o−120o=60o
