C.60
D.75

Answer:

Option D.75°

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The sum of the interior angles of a regular dodecagon is equal to

[tex]S=(n-2)*180[/tex]

where

n is the number of sides

In this problem

n=12 sides

substitute

[tex]S=(12-2)*180[/tex]

[tex]S=1,800\°[/tex]

Find the measure of each interior angle

Divide the sum of the interior angles by the number of sides

[tex]1,800\°/12=150\°[/tex]

The measure of the angle formed by the radius and the side of a regular dodecagon is half the measure of the interior angle

therefore

[tex]150\°/2=75\°[/tex]
