In a certain regular polygon, the measure of each interior angle is nine times the measure of each exterior angle. Find the number of sides in this regular polygon.
Measure of an interior angle = (n-2)(180) / n
Measure of an exterior angle = (360)/n
Where n is the number of sides
So we have that
(9)(360)/n = (n - 2) (180)/n multiply through by n
(9)(360) = (n - 2) (180) simplify
3240 = 180n - 360
3240 + 360 = 180n
[3240 + 360 ] / 180 = n
20 = n
