Question 13 • Geometry

An interior angle of a regular polygon has a measure of 108 degrees What type of polygon is it?

Answer
A
hexagon
B
nonagon
C
pentagon
D
octagon

Explanation

For a regular polygon with n sides, each interior angle measures 180° − 360°/n. Set this equal to 108°: 180° − 108° = 72°, so n = 360°/72° = 5. A five-sided polygon is a pentagon, so the correct choice is D.
