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​​
