The value of m ∠ RPS is 64. 7°

<h3>What are collinear angles?</h3>

Collinear angles are angles formed when three or more points lie on the same straight line.

Note that angles on a straight line sum up to 180 degrees.

From the diagram given, we can see that the angles are collinear angles and thus sum up to 180 degrees;

m ∠QPS = 88°
m ∠ RPS = 5x + 34°
m ∠ QPR = 8x + 15°

m ∠QPS + m ∠ RPS + m ∠ QPR = 180°

88° + 5x + 34° + 8x + 15° = 180

collect like terms

5x + 8x = 180 - 137

Add like terms

13x = 43

Make 'x' the subject of formula

x = 43/ 7

x = 6. 14

m ∠ RPS = 5x + 34 = 5 ( 6. 14) + 34 = 30. 7 + 34 = 64. 7°

Thus, the value of m ∠ RPS is 64. 7°

Nadia is investigating rotations about the center of regular polygons that carry the regular polygon onto itself. She claims tha

GalinKa [24]

Answer:

$\theta_1 \ n\ \theta_2 = 120, 240$

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete, as the angles of rotation are not stated.

However, I will list the angles less than 360 degrees that will carry the hexagon and the nonagon onto itself

We have:

$Nonagon = 9\ sides$

$Hexagon = 6\ sides$

Divide 360 degrees by the number of sides in each angle, then find the multiples.

<u>Nonagon</u>

$\theta = \frac{360}{9} =40$

List the multiples of 40

$\theta_1 = 40, 80, 120, 160, 200, 240, 280, 320$

<u>Hexagon</u>

$\theta = \frac{360}{6} =60$

List the multiples of 60

$\theta_2 = 60, 120, 180, 240, 300$

List out the common angles

$\theta_1 = 40, 80, 120, 160, 200, 240, 280, 320$

$\theta_2 = 60, 120, 180, 240, 300$

$\theta_1 \ n\ \theta_2 = 120, 240$

This means that, only a rotation of $120, 240$ will lift both shapes onto themselves, when applied to both shapes.

The other angles will only work on one of the shapes, but not both at the same time.

Stacey went to six different auto repair shops to get the following estimates to repair her car.

topjm [15]

Answer:

534 is the mean.

Step-by-step explanation:

to calculate the mean you add all the numbers together (for example this set of numbers):

785, 585, 465, 409, 495, 465

=3204

then divide the number of numbers that you added together , (in this case 6)

3204/6

2. Find the slope of the line that passes through the points A(0,2) and B(4,-1)

bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

Use the slope formula to find the slope of a line given the coordinates of two points on the line. The slope formula is m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1), or the change in the y values over the change in the x values. The coordinates of the first point represent x1 and y1. The coordinates of the second points are x2, y2.
