Is it possible to have a polygon whose sum of interior angles is 2880°

Solution

Sum of interior angles of any polygon of sides nis given by n-2×180°

So, n-2×180°=2880°n-2=2880180n-2=16n=18

The number of sides in a polygon is always a natural number.

Since we get the value of n as natural number, it is possible to have a polygon whose sum of interior angles is 2880°

So it is a 18 sided polygon.

Hence, it is possible to have a polygon whose sum of interior angles is 2880°
