5
Option B:
6
Option C:
10
Option D:
12
Option E:
30
Difficulty Level
HardSolution
Option D is the correct answer.
Option Analysis
From the figure,
x + y = 180
6*x = 180
x = 30, y = 150
Let number of sides be “n”, hence number of interior angles is also “n”
Sum of all interior angles = 150*n
Formula for sum of interior angles
= 180*(n-2) 180*(n-2) = 150*n
30*n = 360
n = 360/30 = 12
