    Answer:

    n = 6, 72, 108, 144, 180, 216, 252, 288, 324, 360.....

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Given:

    Shape: Decagon

    Required

    Determine the value of n

    For a decagon:

    Sides = 10

    Complete\ Rotation = 360\°

    First, we need to determine the angle of each rotation.

    This is calculated by dividing the complete rotation with number of sides

    Angle = \frac{360}{10}

    Angle = 36

    Next, we calculate the possible value of n.

    Since there is no option, the general rule is that the possible value of n must be a multiple of angle of each rotation i.e. 36

    Hence, n could be either of the following:

    n = 6, 72, 108, 144, 180, 216, 252, 288, 324, 360.....
