A star-polygon is drawn on a clock face by drawing a chord from each

Now, although at first, this question can look difficult and overwhelming, as you plot the figure, you will observe that there are more than 1 ways of answering this question.

This might not exactly be a GMAT type of question because Star polygons are non-convex polygons and GMAT does not test you on non-convex polygons. However, this is definitely a good question to test out your knowledge of circle concepts.

From the description of the polygon given in the question, this looks like a self-intersecting regular star polygon, since the length of each side is the same.
A self-intersecting regular star polygon is an equiangular polygon. So, all the angles of this polygon will be equal.

Let us draw the polygon now:


Looks brilliant, isn't it?

please clear mey doubt
total sum of angles =(n-2)*180
s0 12-2*180=1800
now each interior angle=1800/12=150
where m i going wrong

As mentioned by Archit in his reply, we see that the polygon obtained is a 12 sided polygon. Since the method involving the sum of the interior angles is already discussed, let’s look at another way of solving this question.

This method is based on the angle made by the arcs touched by the sides of the polygon. To make things clearer, here’s another diagram, showing only the first 2 sides of the polygon.


Clearly, the angle made by arc 10-11-12 at the centre is 60 degrees, since each arc on a clock corresponds to an angle of 30 degrees. Since the arc 10-11-12 makes 60 degree at the centre, it will make exactly half i.e. 30 degrees at any point on the circumference.

This is precisely the angle that we were looking for. So, the interior angle of this polygon is 30 degrees.
The correct answer option is C.

Hope this helps!
