The perimeter of the polygon to the nearest tenth of a unit  \boxed{16.9{\text{ units}}}. Option (b) is correct.

Further explanation:

The distance between the two points can be calculated as follows,

\boxed{{\text{Distance}}=\sqrt {{{\left( {{x_2} - {x_1}} \right)}^2} + {{\left( {{y_2} - {y_1}} \right)}^2}}}

Given:

The coordinates of the vertices of the polygon are \left({ - 2, - 2}\right),\left( {3, - 3}\right),\left( {4, - 6}\right),\left( {1, - 6}\right) and \left( { - 2, - 4}\right).

Explanation:

Consider the points as A \left( { - 2, - 2} \right), B\left( {3, - 3} \right), C\left( {4, - 6} \right), D\left( {1, - 6} \right) and  E\left({ - 2, - 4} \right).

The distance between point A and point B can be calculated as follows,

\begin{aligned}{\text{Distance}}&=\sqrt {{{\left( {3 + 2} \right)}^2} + {{\left( { - 3 + 2}\right)}^2}}\\ &= \sqrt {25 + 1}\\&= \sqrt {26}\\&= 5.2\\\end{aligned}

The distance between point B and point C can be calculated as follows,

\begin{aligned}{\text{Distance}}&=\sqrt {{{\left( {4 - 3} \right)}^2} + {{\left( { - 6 + 3} \right)}^2}}\\&= \sqrt {{1^2} + 9}\\&= \sqrt {10}\\&= 3.17\\\end{aligned}

The distance between point C and point D can be calculated as follows,

\begin{aligned}{\text{Distance}}&= \sqrt {{{\left({1 - 4} \right)}^2} + {{\left( { - 6 + 6}\right)}^2}}  \\&=\sqrt {{3^2} + 0}\\&= \sqrt9\\&= 3\\\end{aligned}

The distance between point D and point E can be calculated as follows,

\begin{aligned}{\text{Distance}}&= \sqrt {{{\left( { - 2 - 1}\right)}^2} + {{\left( { - 4 + 6}\right)}^2}}\\&= \sqrt{ - {3^2} + {2^2}}\\&= \sqrt {9 + 4}\\&= \sqrt {13}\\&= 3.61\\\end{aligned}

The distance between point E and point A can be calculated as follows,

\begin{aligned}{\text{Distance}} &= \sqrt {{{\left( { - 2 + 2} \right)}^2} + {{\left( { - 4 + 2} \right)}^2}}\\ &= \sqrt {{0^2} + {2^2}}\\&=\sqrt4\\&= 2\\\end{aligned}

The perimeter of the polygon can be calculated as follows,

\begin{aligned}{\text{Perimeter}}&= 5.12 + 3.17 + 3 + 3.61 + 2\\&= 16.9\\\end{aligned}

Option (a) is not correct.

Option (b) is correct.

Option (c) is not correct.

Option (d) is not correct.

The perimeter of the polygon to the nearest tenth of a unit \boxed{16.9{\text{ units}}}. Option (b) is correct.

Given: measure of angle KJ = 124°, measure of IC =38°<br><br> Find: m∠CQJ, m∠LIJ.
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

Part 1) m

Part 2) m

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1) Find the measure of angle CQJ

we know that

The measure of the interior angle is the semi-sum of the arcs comprising it and its opposite.

m

arc\ IK+arc\ CJ=360\°-(arc\ IC+arc\ KJ)

substitute the values

arc\ IK+arc\ CJ=360\°-(38\°+124\°)=198\°

m

Part 2) Find the measure of angle LIJ

step 1

Find the measure of angle IJL

we know that

The inscribed angle is half that of the arc it comprises.

m

substitute the values

m

step 2

Find the measure of angle ILJ

we know that

The measurement of the external angle is the semi-difference of the arcs it encompasses.

m

substitute the values

m

step 3

Find the measure of angle LIJ

Remember that the sum of the interior angles of a triangle must be equal to 180 degrees

In the triangle LIJ

m

substitute the values

m

3^{x + 2} - 3^{x} = 3^{x}* 3^{2} - 3^{x} = 9(3^{x}) - 1(3^{x}) = 8(3^{x})

3^{x + 2} - 3^{x} = \frac{8}{9}

⇒ 8(3^{x}) = \frac{8}{9}

⇒ 3^{x} = \frac{1}{9}   <em>multiplied both sides by 8</em>

⇒3^{x} = \frac{1}{3^{2} }

⇒ 3^{x} = 3⁻²

⇒ x = -2

Answer: x = -2
