Answer
It is given that the interior angle of a regular polygon is 165°.
According to the properties of polygons, if a polygon has n sides, then each of its interior angles is .
⇒ = 165°
⇒ (2n - 4) x 90° = 165°n
⇒ 180°n - 360° = 165°n
⇒ 180°n - 165°n = 360°
⇒ 15°n = 360°
⇒ n =
⇒ n = 24
Hence, option 2 is the correct option.
