The angles of a polygon are given by x, 2x, 3x, 4x and 5x respectively. Find the value of x. A. 24o B. 30o C. 33o D. 36o Detailed SolutionSince there are 5 angles given, the polygon is a pentagon.Sum of interior angles of a pentagon = (2(5) - 4) x 90° = 540° \(\therefore\) x + 2x + 3x + 4x + 5x = 15x 15x = 540° \(x = \frac{540}{15} = 36°\) There is an explanation video available below. |
