Answer: 1/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: Angle x equals 19 degrees
Step-by-step explanation: We have two polygons, one with five sides and the other with eight sides. The question states that the pentagon has exactly one line of symmetry which means the line that runs down from point D to line AB divides the shape into exactly two equal sides. Hence angle A measures the same size as angle B (in the pentagon).
First step is to calculate the angles in the pentagon. The sum of angles in a polygon is given as
(n - 2) x 180 {where n is the number of sides}
= 3 x 180
= 540
This means the total angles in the pentagon can be expressed as
A + B + 84 + 112 + 112 = 540
A + B + 308 = 540
Subtract 308 from both sides of the equation
A + B = 232
Since we have earlier determined that angle A measures the same size as angle B, we simply divide 232 into two equal sides, so 232/2 = 116
Having determined angle A as 116 degrees, we can now compute the value of angle A in the octagon ABFGHIJK. Since the figure is a regular octagon, that means all the angles are of equal measurement. So, the sum of interior angles is given as
(n - 2) x 180 {where n is the number of sides}
= 6 x 180
= 1080
If the total sum of the interior angles equals 1080, then each angle becomes
1080/8
= 135 degrees.
That means angle A in the octagon measures 135, while in the pentagon it measures 116. The size of angle x is simply the difference between both values which is
x = 135 - 116
x = 19 degrees
Substitute y = x + 1 into 2x - 5y = 4
-3x - 5 = 4
Solve for x in -3x - 5 = 4
x = -3
Substitute x = -3 into y = x + 1
y = -2
Therefore,
<u>x = -3</u>
<u>y = -2</u>
Answer:
18 pencils in 3 packs.
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming that each pack will have the same amount of pencils. It is given that there are 36 pencils in all when one has 6 packs. Find the amount in each pack by dividing (total amount of pencils)/(amount of packs) = Amount of pencils per pack:
36/6 = 6
There are 6 pencils in each pack.
Now, Elsa wants to know how much pencils are in 3 packs. Multiply the amount of packs with the amount of pencils in each pack:
Total amount of pencils = amount of packs (3) x amount of pencils per pack (6)
= 3 x 6
= 18
There are 18 pencils in 3 packs.
