    Question

    For a regular polygon, the sum of the interior angles is 300% more than the sum of its exterior angles. Each interior angle of the polygon measures x°. What is the value of x?​

    A.

    156

    B.

    140

    C.

    134

    D.

    144

    Correct option is D

    Given:

    The sum of interior angles is 300% more than the sum of exterior angles.

    Each interior angle = xx^\circ​​

    Formula Used:

    Sum of exterior angles of any polygon = 360360^\circ​​

    Sum of interior angles = 180(n - 2), where n = number of sides 

    Each interior angle = 180(n2)n\frac{180(n - 2)}{n}
    Solution:

    If the interior sum is 300% more than exterior sum: 

    Interior Sum = 360 + 300% of 360 = 360 + 1080 = 1440

    180(n - 2) = 1440

    n = 1440180\frac{1440}{180}​ + 2 = 8 + 2 = 10

    Now,

    Each interior angle = 180(102)10=180×810=144010=144\frac{180(10 - 2)}{10} = \frac{180 \times 8}{10} = \frac{1440}{10} = 144^\circ​​
