  1. Ratio of the number of sides of two regular polygons is 5 : 6 and the ratio of their each interior angle is 24 : 25. Then the number of sides of these two polygons are
    1. 20, 24
    2. 15, 18
    3. 10, 12
    4. 5, 6
Correct Option: C

Given , Ratio of the number of sides of two regular polygons = 5 : 6
and the ratio of their each interior angle = 24 : 25
Let the number of sides be 5y and 6y respectively.

Then,
(2 × 5y - 4) ÷ 5y
=
24
(2 × 6y - 4) ÷ 6y25

10y - 4
5y =
24
12y - 4
25
6y

we know that , Each interior angle =
(2n - 4)90°
n

5y - 2
×
6
=
24
56y - 225

5y - 2
=
4
6y - 25

⇒ 25y – 10 = 24y – 8
⇒ y = 10 – 8 = 2
∴ Number of sides = 10 and 12.
