A regular m-gon has 3 times as many sides as a regular k-gon.

Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

k = 10
m = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

The interior angle of the m-gon is ...

m-interior = 180 -360/m

The exterior angle of the k-gon is ...

k-exterior = 360/k

The required relationships are ...

m = 3k

m-interior = 14/3(k-exterior)

Substituting for m, we can write the latter relation as ...

(180 -360/(3k)) = 14/3(360/k)

Multiplying by 3k/180, we have ...

3k -2 = 28

k = (28 +2)/3 = 10

The values of k and m are 10 and 30, respectively.

_____

Check

The interior angle of the m-gon is 180 -360/30 = 168 degrees.

The exterior angle of the k-gon is 360/10 = 36 degrees.

The angle ratio is 168/36 = 14/3 as required.

Michele wanted to measure the height of her school’s flagpole. She placed a mirror on the ground 48 feet from the flagpole, then

zepelin [54]

Refer to the diagram below for the sketch of the position of the mirror, Michelle, and the flagpole.

Using similar triangle concept, to find the height of the flagpole, we first need to find out the scale factor of the horizontal distance.
We write this as ratio
Mirror to Michelle : Mirror to Flagpole
12ft : 48ft
1 : 4

So the ratio of the height is
Michelle : Flagpole
1 : 4
5ft : 20ft
