<h3>Interior angles of a regular polygon</h3>

<em>A </em><em>regular polygon</em><em> is a figure in which all the sides have the same </em><em>length</em><em> that is, they are equal and all the </em><em>interior angles</em><em> are of the </em><em>same measure.</em>

<h3>The formula to calculate the interior angles of any regular polygon is:</h3><h3>( n - 2 ) 180°</h3>

<em>This </em><em>regular polygon</em><em> is a </em><em>hendecagon.</em>

A hendecagon is a polygon that has 9 equal sides.

<h3>If the sum of the interior angles is 1620°, then</h3>

( n - 2 ) 180° = 1620

<em>As a second step, we divide by 180:</em>

<h3>( n-2 ) = 1620 ➗ 180</h3>

<em>We divide</em>

<h3>n - 2 = 9</h3>

<em>We change the direction, as the sign is negative, in the change of direction it starts to add.</em>

<h3>n = 9 + 2</h3>

<em>We add both numbers.</em>

<h3>n = 11</h3>

Answer: the measure of the exterior angle of the regular polygon (hendecagon) is 11. ✅

\textit{sum of all interior angles in a polygon}\\\\ S =180(n-2) \begin{cases} n=\stackrel{number~of}{sides}\\[-0.5em] \hrulefill\\ S =1620 \end{cases}\implies 1620=180(n-2) \\\\\\ \cfrac{1620}{180}=n-2\implies 9=n-2\implies \underline{11=n} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill

\textit{sum of all exterior angles in a regular polygon}\\\\ n\theta = 360 \begin{cases} n=\stackrel{number~of}{sides}\\ \theta =\stackrel{angle~in}{degrees}\\[-0.5em] \hrulefill\\ \underline{n=11} \end{cases}\implies 11\theta =360\implies \theta =\cfrac{360}{11}\implies \theta \approx 32.7^o

A track has the shapes shown. what is the perimeter ?
USPshnik [31]
Break this problem down first. You have two lines each with length of 5. You also have two halves of a circle, combine them to get a full circle with a radius of 2. The formula to find the perimeter of a circle is
2\pi \times r
and this gives a perimeter of 12.566 for the circle. Add this to your sides and you get a total of 22.566 which is answer B

Find the sum of (x + 5) and (2x + 3)
Genrish500 [490]
What you can do is subtract 1x from each side 
Then you subtract 3 from each side
Then it tells you x=2
Always put what you think x is back into the problem and see if it works out

Example on how you do it:
(x+5)=(2x+3)
5=(x+3)
2=x

ms D ARRIVED AT SCHOOL AT 7:30 AM, SHE SPENT 35 MINUTES AT THE DINNER WITH A FRIEND IT TAKES HER 15 MINUTES TO GET TO SCHOOL WHA
Effectus [21]

Answer:

Ms D left at 6:40 AM

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

MS D arrived at school at 7:30 AM

time spent for dinner = 35 mins

Time taken to to go to school = 15 mins

We will first find the Total time taken after leaving.

Total time taken can be calculated by adding time spent for dinner and Time taken to to go to school.

Total time taken after leaving = time spent for dinner + Time taken to to go to school = 35 +15 = 50 mins

MS D arrived at school at 7:30 AM.

Hence Time Ms D left  = Time She arrive at school - Total time taken after leaving = 7 hrs 30 min - 50 mins = 6 hrs 40 mins.

Hence Ms D left at 6:40 AM.

Consider two events such that P(A) = 1/4 , P(B) = 2/3 , and P(A ∩ B) = 1/5 . Are events A and B independent events?
fredd [130]
P(A) = 1/4
p(B) = 2/3
p(A ∩ B) = 1/5
p(A).p(B) = 2/12 = 1/6 ≠p(A ∩ B )
thus no, they are dependent because P(A) ⋅ P(B) ≠ P(A ∩ B)
