Using exterior angle property of polygons to find the number of sides:

It is known that the measure of each interior angle is 165°.

Then, each exterior angle = 180°-165° [exterior angle = 180°- interior angle]

⇒ 15°

∵ (number of sides) × (the measure of each exterior angle) =360° [Using exterior angle property of polygons]

⇒ (number of sides) ×15° = 360°

⇒ Number of sides = 360°/15°

⇒ 24

Therefore, a polygon with interior angles 165° has 24 sides.
