Step-by-step explanation:

Because 2x and 40° are complementary angles.

$\therefore \: (2x) \degree + 40 \degree = 90 \degree \\ \\ \therefore \: (2x) \degree = 90 \degree - 40 \degree \\ \\ \therefore \: (2x) \degree = 50 \degree \\ \\ \therefore \: 2x = 50 \\ \\ \therefore \: x = \frac{50}{2} \\ \\ \huge \red{ \boxed{ \therefore \: x = 25}}$

An equilateral triangle has an apothem of 5 cm. Find the perimeter of the triangle to the nearest centimeter.

san4es73 [151]

The apothem is the distance from the center to the midpoint of one of the sides of a regular polygon. You can make a right triangle with the apothem, the line from the midpoint to the corner and the line from the center to the corner. An equilateral triangle has 60 degree angles (180/3). The right triangle has half of one of those angles so 30 degrees. Now we have a 30-60-90 triangle where the short leg is 5cm. The long leg, which is also half of one side of the triangle is thus $5\sqrt{3}$ . A whole side of the triangle is $10\sqrt{3}$ . Multiply that by 3 to get the perimeter of <span> $30\sqrt{3}$ .</span>
