no of daigonals =nC2-n
275=n(n-3)/2
550=n(n-3)
22 x25=n(n-3)
this gives n=22
fyn !
nobody is wrong
even a stopped clock is right twice a day

pink element ur concept is right , but a calculation mistake


 


n= 25 or n= -22


since n=-22 is not possible, n= 25 is the ans


 


rate me
all the best ...
