What is the measure of one exterior angle of a regular hexagon?

all equal.http://www.mathsisfun.What 6 equal values add up to 360?......
And how do you get the answer? ??

-
180(n-2)= sum of interior angles in whatever shape (put n as the number of sides of the shape)
n=6 since there are 6 sides for a regular hexagon

180(n-2)=180(6-2)=180x4=720

720/6=120 degrees<--interior angle

exterior is just 180-120 or 60 degrees.

First fact: The exterior angles add up to 360 for any polygon.
Second fact: In a regular hexagon, there are 6 exterior angles, all equal.
