Option 1: 14
Option 2: 12
Option 3: 13
Option 4: 11
Correct Answer: 13
Solution : Given: There are two regular polygons with numbers of sides equal to ($n$–1) and ($n$+2). Their exterior angles differ by 6°. We know that exterior angle of a polygon = $\frac{360°}{\text{number of sides}}$ According to the question, $\frac{360°}{n-1}-\frac{360°}{n+2}=6°$ $⇒360°(\frac{1}{n-1}-\frac{1}{n+2})=6°$ $⇒60°[\frac{n+2-n+1}{(n-1)(n+2)}]=1$ $⇒n^2+n-2=180$ $⇒n^2+n-182=0$ $⇒(n+14)(n-13)=0$ $\therefore n=13$
