Paragraph: The interior angles of a polygon of n sides are in AP. The smallest angle is 120^ and the common difference is 5^ . Question: What is the largest interior angle of the polygon?
Options
- A160^ only
- B195^ only
- CEither 160^ or 195^
- DNither 160 nor 195^
Correct answer
A. 160^ only
Step-by-step solution
For n=9 Largest angle =T₉=120+(9-1) 5=160 For n=16 Largest angle =T₁₆=120+(16-1) 5=195 (Not possible).
