1) Grogg draws an equiangular polygon with g sides, and Winnie draws an equiangular polygon with w sides, where g < w. If the exterior angle of Grogg's polygon is congruent to the interior angle of Winnie's polygon, find w.
2) The measures of the angles a 9-gon are in ratio 3 : 1 : 4 : 1 : 5 : 9 : 2 : 6 : 5. What is the number of degrees in the measure of the largest angle?
3) In concave equilateral pentagon ABCDE, Angle A is qual to Angle B is equal to 90 degrees. What is the degree measure of angle E?
4) Alex thinks 131 degrees are neat. What is the maximum number of interior angles of a convex n-gon that can have measure 131 degrees?
+128475 1) We are trying to find this :
Interior angle of Winnie's = Exterior angle of Grogg's
(w - 2)180 / w = 360/g simplify
(w - 2) / w = 2/g
g/2 = w / (w - 2)
g = 2w/ (w - 2) it's clear that w > 2
Possibilities :
w g
3 6
4 4
6 3
The answer in red is correct
Winnie' polygon is a hexagon and Grogg's is a equilateral triangle
So
w = 6

The sum of the interior angles of a 9-gon = (9 - 2) * 180 = 7 * 180 = 1260°
So....the largest angle is given by
9 / [ 3 + 1 + 4 + 1 + 5 + 9 + 2 + 6 + 5 ] * 1260 =
9/ 36 * 1260 =
(1/4) * 1260 =
315°
