.
.
B

.
.
C
There is a regular polygon with 
.
.
D

.
.
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
B
Sol. 
= cos 
Let cos 
= 
for some n ≥ 3, n ∈ N
As 
< 
< 
⇒ cos 
< cos 
< cos 
⇒ 
> 
> 
⇒ 3 < n < 4, which is not possible
so option is the false statement
so it will be the right choice
Hence correct option is
