The first thing you should know for this case is that the outer angles of a regular pentagon are equal to 72 degrees.
Therefore, we have the following equation:
[tex] 2x = 72
[/tex]
From here, we clear the value of x.
We have then:
[tex] x = \frac{72}{2}
x = 36
[/tex]
Answer:
the value of x is:
D x=36
Answer: D. x = 36
Step-by-step explanation:
Since, the sum of all exterior angle of a regular polygon is 360°. Also, all exterior angles of a regular polygon have the same measurement, Which is [tex]\frac{360}{n}[/tex].
Where n is the number of sides of the regular polygon,
For a regular pentagon,
n = 5,
Thus, the measurement of one exterior angle of the regular polygon = [tex]\frac{360}{5}[/tex]
According to the question,
[tex]2x=\frac{360}{5}[/tex]
[tex]x=\frac{360}{10}[/tex]
[tex]x = 36[/tex]
⇒ Option D is correct.
