Correct Answer: Option B
Explanation:
2x + x = 180o
3x = 180o
x = 60o (exterior angle of the polygon)
angle = \(\frac{\text{total angle}}{\text{number of sides}}\)
60 = \(\frac{360}{n}\)
n = \(\frac{360}{60}\)
n = 6 sides
2x + x = 180o
3x = 180o
x = 60o (exterior angle of the polygon)
angle = \(\frac{\text{total angle}}{\text{number of sides}}\)
60 = \(\frac{360}{n}\)
n = \(\frac{360}{60}\)
n = 6 sides
