Three exterior angles of a polygon are 30\(^o\), 40\(^o\) and 60\(^o\). If the remaining exterior angles are 46\(^o\) each, name the polygon.
A
decagon
B
nonagon
C
octagon
D
hexagon
Verified Correct Answer: C.
Step-by-Step Mathematical Solution
Sum of all exterior angles is 360\(^o\)
360\(^o\) (30\(^o\) - 40\(^o\))
360 - (130\(^o\))
230\(^o\)
remaining is 46\(^o\) = \(\frac{230}{46}\) = 5
5 + 3 = 8 sides; Octagon
