The EXterior angles will be    180 - 162 = 18 degrees

     EXterior angles sum to 360

        360 / 18 = n

You could also write it as an equation:

 

n = number of sides in the polygon

 

162n=180(n2)

162n=180n360

0=18n360

18n=360

n=20

 

So, the polygon has 20 sides like Pavlov said.

 

(His method is the better method tho...)
