OpenStudy (anonymous):

there are 8 interior angles so 360/8=45 and interior angle = exterior angle

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so interior and exterior= the same thing?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no their values are same for example for Nanogon interior and exterior angle=40

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay interior here = 45?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay, how does that help in finding m?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

m is the exterior angle of regular octagon. interior angle of regular octagon is 360/8 =45. exterior anggle = interior anggle. so m=45

OpenStudy (anonymous):

360/8 is because regular octagon has 8 sides

OpenStudy (anonymous):

did u gget it?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

es

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes
