Answer: The converse is "If a polygon has 5 sides, then it is a regular pentagon" and it is FALSE.

Step-by-step explanation: We are given to state the converse of the following conditional statement and to determine whether it is true or false :

"If a polygon is a regular pentagon, then it has 5 sides".

We know that

the converse of a conditional statement "p ⇒ q" is given by "q ⇒ p".

Therefore, the CONVERSE of given conditional statement is

"If a polygon has 5 sides, then it is a regular pentagon".

The converse is not true, because if a polygon has 5 sides, then it is a pentagon, not necessarily a regular pentagon.

Thus, the converse is "If a polygon has 5 sides, then it is a regular pentagon" and it is FALSE.

If a polygon has 5 sides, then it is a regular pentagon
False: regular pentagon = equiangular. There are pentagons that have 5 sides that are not equiangular

What is the measure of 21? 100° 90° 80° 85° 95%

Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

A quadrilateral's interior angles have a sum of 360°.

Given that we have 85°, 100°, and 90°(the right angle), and an unknown angle.

We can add these angles plus the unknown angle to equal a total of 360°.

85 + 100 + 90 + x(our unknown missing angle) = 360

simplify

275 + x = 360

Isolate x by subtract 275 from both sides;

-275 -275

x = 85, ∠1 = 85°

We can also double check:-

85 + 100 + 90 + 85 = 360

360 = 360 which is correct.

Which table represents a linear function?

Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

You can tell if a table is linear by looking at how X and Y change. If, as X increases by 1, Y increases by a constant rate, then a table is linear. You can find the constant rate by finding the first difference.

Zoe is making a quilt using 15 red squares and 30 green squares. Which combination shows the same ratio of red squares to green

Scilla [17]

Answer: A. 3 red squares to 6 green squares

Step-by-step explanation:

Method 1) Find a common factor between 15 and 30. For this problem, I'll pick 5. Divide both numbers by this common factor.

15/5=3 red squares

30/5=6 green squares

3 red squares to 6 green squares

Method 2) Find the greatest common factor between 15 and 30. The GCF is 15. Divide both numbers by the GCF.

15/15=1

30/15=2

This leaves you with a ratio of 1 red square to 2 green squares. 1:2 is equivalent to 3:6

3 red squares to 6 green squares
