Question

What is the measure of each exterior angle of a regular hexagon? 40° 45° 60° 72°

Answer 1

60°

Explanation:

n = 6

sum of interior angles: (n - 2)180 = (6 -2)180 = 720

each interior angle = 720/6 = 120

exterior angles are supplementary to interior angles, therefore:

each exterior angle = 180 - 120 = 60

shortcut: each exterior angle = 360/6 = 60
