There are 6, you'd think there would be 8 but the answer is actually 6. A diagonal is a line segment that connects to vertices, the two vertices chosen do not count when forming the triangle, two vertices that are adjacent to that chosen vertex are NOT included when forming the diagonal. It's confusing, but I hope this helps. If you have any follow up questions I'd love to answer them.
first speed --- x mph
return speed -- x+16 mph
6/x + 6/(x+16) = 1
times each term by x(x+16)
6(x+16) + 6x = x(x+16)
x^2 + 4x - 96 = 0
(x-8)(x+12) = 0
x = 8 or x is a negative
her first speed was 8 mph
her return speed was 24 mph
check:
6/8 + 6/24 = 1 , that's good!
<span>Straight (it's a straight line!), full rotation (a circle), but nothing else since you can't measure the exact angle of it</span>
