Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
x = centesimal angle (100 degrees in a right angle)
y = sexagesimal angle (90 degrees in a right angle)
x - y = 15
x×90/100 = y
x×9/10 = y
x - x×9/10 = 15
10x/10 - 9x/10 = 15
x/10 = 15
x = 150
y = 150×9/10 = 15×9 = 135
using centesimal system :
the sum of all external angles in a polygon is 400 degrees (a full circle).
one external angle is the complement of one internal angle to 200 degrees = 200-150=50 degrees.
to find the number of sides of the polygon we need to find the number of angles or corners. and that is how many external angles fit into the full circle.
n = 400/50 = 8
the polygon has 8 sides
