Let x be the length of each side of the nonagon. We then split up the nonagon into 9 congruent, isosceles triangles, each with base = x and height = 12. Then the area of each triangle is 1/2 • x • 12 = 6x, so the total area of the nonagon will be 9 • 6x = 54x.
To find x, we can use some facts from geometry and trigonometry.
• In any polygon, the sum of the measures of the exterior angles is 360°. So each of these exterior angles will measure 360°/9 = 40°.
• Exterior angles are supplementary to the interior angles. So each interior angle will measure 180° - 40° = 140°.
• Each of the 9 triangles are isosceles with base angles measuring half the interior angles of the nonagon, 140°/2 = 70°.
• Cut the triangle in half along the labeled inradius of the nonagon, which has length 12. In the resulting right triangle, we have
tan(70°) = 12 / (x/2)
and solving for x gives
tan(70°) = 24/x
x = 24/tan(70°)
x = 24 cot(70°) ≈ 8.7
Then the total area of the nonagon is
54x = 54 • 24 cot(70°) ≈ 471.7

Answer:
where are the others
Step-by-step explanation:
is there supposed to be other numbers?
Answer:
the answer is 66.205
Step-by-step explanation:
basically you look at the place value so
66.21 is basically the same as 66.210 then you look at the lowest number that can round UP to 66.210 which would be out of 1 to 9 would be 5 so the smallest number that can round up to 66.210 is 66.205 hope this helped :D
Length of train : 100
length of bridge : 400
distance covered by the train to cross the bridge : (100 + 400) = 500
time taken by the train to cross : 30
speed = distance / time
speed = 500/30
speed = 16.67 meters per second <===
