How do I find the perimeter of a polygon?

Mathematics
1 answer:
noname [10]3 years ago
6 0

Add up the lengths of the several sides of the polygon.

Examples: The perimeter of a triangle is the sum of the lengths of the 3 sides.

The perimeter of a hexagon is the sum of the lengths of the 6 sides.

And so on.

I highly recommend drawing any polygon whose perimeter you wish to calculate.

A square base of a pyramid has the dimensions 5 yards
AfilCa [17]

Answer:

145 yd²

Step-by-step explanation:

There will be dour triangular faces. For a triangle, area is given as

A=½bh where b is base and h is height. The base will be 5 yards and h is 12 yards hence for one triangular face, area will be ½*5*12=30 yd²

Since they are four similar triangles, area of triangular faces will be 30*4=120 yd²

The surface area of a square base is given by

A=a*a=a² where a is the dimension of one side. Given that the meaurement is 5 yards then A=5²=25 yd²

Total area will be the sum of triangular and square faces hence 120+25=145 yd²

Reduce all of the mutiple choices

A. 4/3 . It is greater than 3/4. 4/3 as a decimal is 1.333. 3/4= 0.75

B. 12/12. 12/12=1. 1 is greater than 3/4

C. 9/16. Cannot reduce the fraction.

D. 12/16 divide by 4 for the numerator and denominator. 12/4=3 , 16/4= 4

WILL GIVE A BRAINLIEST IF UR CORRECT PLEASE HELP!!
Otrada [13]
A pair of numbers is a solution of y = -3x if the second number, y, is -3 times the first number, x.

What about the pair (-1, 4)?  If you replace x with -1, you get y = -3(-1) = 3, not 4.  So (-1, 4) is NOT a solution.

For each answer choice, you have to check all three of the given pairs.

(0, 0) is a solution because if x = 0, then y = -3(0) = 0.
(3, -9) is a solution because if x = 3, then y = 3(-3) = -9.

Why do non STEM majors detest taking algebraic courses at the collegiate level?
yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

Because they find it hard to pass in the past.

Step-by-step explanation:

Non-STEM majors detest taking algebraic courses at the collegiate level because based on their past experiences in high school, whereby they probably do not excel in algebra, numbers, or mathematical subjects in general, the thought of going through advanced numbers and equations can be overwhelming.

Nobody wants to have or at least start college with poor grades. Hence, because non-STEM students find algebraic courses hard to pass in the past, they detest taking the course that has to do with it at the college level.
