Answer:

This is impossible.

Step-by-step explanation:

The interior angle of a regular polygon is equal to

[tex] \frac{180(n - 2)}{n} [/tex]

where n is the number of sides.

Setting this equal to 180°,

[tex] \frac{180(n - 2)}{n} = 180 \\ \\ \frac{n - 2}{n} = 1 \\ \\ n = n - 2 \\ \\ 0 = - 2[/tex]

which is false.
