A polygon has 54 diagonals. Then, the number of its sides is
- A 7
- B 9
- C 10
- D 12
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) 12
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Number of diagonals in polygon \(=54\) Let the number of sides in polygon \(=n\) Then, The number of diagonal in any polygon \(=\frac{n(n-3)}{2}\) \(54=\frac{n(n-3)}{2}\) \(n^2-3 n=108\) \(n^2-3 n-108=0\) \(n^2-12 n+9 n-108=0\) \(n(n-12)+9(n-12)=0\) \((n+9)(n-12)=0\) \(n=-9\) or…
