Step 1
One of the method is to consider each exterior angle as an angle of rotation of any side to a direction of the next neighboring side.
Therefore, after 90 turns by an exterior angle the side returns to its original direction.
If ϕ is a measure of an external angle, it can be expressed as
90 ϕ = 360 o
from which follows that ϕ = 4 o
