What's the minimum exterior angle possible of a regular polygon?
To do: To find the minimum exterior angle possible of a regular polygon.
Solution:
The minimum number of sides of a polygon$=3$. The regular polygon of three sides is always $60^{\circ}$.
Therefore, each interior angle is $60^{\circ}$.
The sum of an interior angle and an exterior angle is always supplementary.
The maximum exterior angle possible for a regular polygon $=180^{\circ}-60^{\circ}=120^{\circ}$.
So for an equilateral triangle, each exterior angle is $120^{\circ}$ and interior angle is $60^{\circ}$.
