(a) Exterior angle = 22°
Number of sides = sum of exterior angles/ exterior angle
⇒ Number of sides = 360/22 = 16.36
No, we can’t have a regular polygon with each exterior angle as 22° as it is not divisor of 360.
(b) Interior angle = 22°
Exterior angle = 180° – 22°= 158°
No, we can’t have a regular polygon with each exterior angle as 158° as it is not divisor of 360.
