Which of these statements is true? A. The interior angles of both a regular and irregular pentagon have a sum of 540o. B. The in
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

 Option A is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

 The sum of interior angles of a polygon is given by (n-2) x 180°, where n is the number of sides.

 The sum of interior angles will not affect irregularity of polygon, it is same for regular and irregular polygon.

 For a pentagon n =5.

 Sum of interior angles = (5-2) x 180 = 3 x 180 = 540°

  Option A is the correct answer.

Write the equation of the line with the given slope and y- intercept. 1.Slope is -2 and a y-intercept of 5.
Monica [59]

Since the slope is -2, then m=-2. Since the y-intercept is 5, b=5. Then, we can create the equation: y=-2x+5


Since the slope is \frac{3}{4}, then m=\frac{3}{4}. Since the y-intercept is -3, b=-3.

Then, we can create the equation: y=\frac{3}{4}x-3
