Question

If A1, A2, ...., An be the vertices of an n-sided regular polygon such that , then find the value of n

Options

A.5
B.7
C.8
D.9

Solution

Let centre be origin & A1 be Z0 & OA1 = OA2 = .... = a
So  A2 = z0, A3 = z0 ......
Now  A1 A2 = = | z0| = 2a sin
similarlly A1 A3 = 2a sin , A1A4 = 2a sin
Given 
⇒  sin    ⇒  
⇒  n = 7 is only possible value.
