  1. The interior angle of a regular polygon exceeds its exterior angle by 108°. The number of the sides of the polygon is
    1. 12
    2. 16
    3. 14
    4. 10
Correct Option: D

Let the number of sides of regular polygon be n.
According to the question,
The interior angle of a regular polygon exceeds its exterior angle by 108°

(2n - 4) × 90°
-
360°
= 108
nn

(2n - 4) × 5
-
20
= 6
nn

⇒ 10n – 20 – 20 = 6n
⇒ 10n – 6n = 40
⇒ 4n = 40
⇒ n = 40 ÷ 4 = 10
