If you look back at your answers, they all added up to 360[math]^\circ[/math][br]Therefore the [b]Sum of the exterior angles add up to 360[math]^\circ[/math][br][/b][br]For regular polygons you can find the value of the exterior angle by:[br][math]\frac{360}{n}[/math] where [b]n [/b]is the number of sides.
