Question
Given that the exterior angle of a regular hexagon is x, find the size of each interior angle of hexagon.
so 6x
6x = 360
6x/6 = 360/6
x = 60
Is that correct?
so 6x
6x = 360
6x/6 = 360/6
x = 60
Is that correct?

x = 60
is the correct solution for the <u>exterior</u> angles.
So, what does that tell you about the interior angles?

6x = 180
x = 30
x = 30

NO!
If x is the exterior angle, and y is the interior angle
x+y = 180
Not x*y = 180
If x is the exterior angle, and y is the interior angle
x+y = 180
Not x*y = 180
