Problem
The sides of a regular polygon of sides, , are extended to form a star. The number of degrees at each point of the star is:
(A)
(B)
(C)
(D)
Solution
The measure of each angle, in degrees, of an -sided regular polygon is . Hence, the two base angles of each triangle formed measure degrees, and the vertex angle measures degrees. This simplifies to , or .
Final answer
B
