Question

question 37 of 40
for every how many degrees will a regular pentagon have rotational symmetry?
a. 72 degrees
b. 45 degrees
c. 36 degrees
d. 60 degrees

Explanation:

Step1: Recall full rotation degrees

A full rotation is $360^\circ$.

Step2: Count polygon sides

A regular pentagon has 5 sides.

Step3: Calculate rotation angle

Divide full rotation by number of sides: $\frac{360^\circ}{5} = 72^\circ$

Answer:

A. 72 degrees
