Answer:

  x²/2166784 +y²/2159989 = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The relationship between the semi-axes and the eccentricity of an ellipse is ...

  e = √(1 -b²/a²)

In order to write the desired equation we need to find 'b' from 'e' and 'a'.

__

<h3>semi-minor axis</h3>

Squaring the equation for eccentricity gives ...

  e² = 1 -b²/a²

Solving for b², we have ...

  b²/a² = 1 -e²

  b² = a²(1 -e²)

<h3>ellipse equation</h3>

Using the given values, we find ...

  b² = 1472²(1 -0.056²) = 2166784(0.996864) ≈ 2159989

The desired equation is ...

  x²/2166784 +y²/2159989 = 1

The measure of one interior angle of a regular 90-sided polygon.
schepotkina [342]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  176°

Step-by-step explanation:

The total of exterior angles is 360°, so one of those for the regular polygon will be 360°/90 = 4°. The adjacent interior angle is the supplement of this.

The interior angles measure 180° -4° = 176°.
