Translation of the text:
- The diagram shows part of polygons and .
- is a regular polygon with sides.
- is a regular hexagon.
- The internal angle between polygons and is .
- Determine the value of .
Approach:
-
Regular Polygon Properties:
- The internal angle of a regular polygon with sides can be calculated using the formula:
- For a regular hexagon (which has 6 sides), the internal angle is:
-
External Angles:
- The external angle is the supplement of the internal angle. For polygon :
- For polygon , the external angle is:
-
Given Relationship:
- The sum of the external angles at the vertex where polygons and meet is , so:
-
Solve for :
Thus, the value of is 15.
