What is the smallest degree of rotation that will map a regular 18-gon onto itself?

2 answers:

6 0

Because the 18-gon is symmetrical, you can rotate it by 360/18 or 20 degrees. This is because when you rotate it by 20 degrees(to the left for explanation matters), any angle will now be in the position of its angle to its left.

Answer:

The answer is 20

Step-by-step explanation:

360 will be divided by 18 which will give you 20. For those of you who had the same question but instead of "18-gon" you had "20-gon" if you divide 360 by 20 your answer will be 18.

Step-by-step explanation:

so 5/9(86-32) then you take

86-32=(54)

now it look like C=5/9=(54)

C=30

so c=30 is the answer :)

According to scientific research, the probability that a person between the ages of 20 and 25 having high blood pressure, is onl

boyakko [2]

Answer:

<h2>The probability is ${\frac{83}{100} }^9 \times \frac{17}{100}$ + ${\frac{83}{100} }^8 \times {\frac{17}{100} }^2$ + ${\frac{83}{100} }^{10}$ .</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of having high blood pressure is 17%.

We need to find the probability of 2 or fewer have high blood pressure.

Possibility 1: No one have high blood pressure.

The probability is ${\frac{100 -17}{100} }^{10} = {\frac{83}{100} }^{10}$ .

Possibility 2: Only one have high blood pressure.

The probability is ${\frac{83}{100} }^9 \times \frac{17}{100}$ .

Possibility 3: 2 among the 10 have the high blood pressure.

${\frac{83}{100} }^8 \times {\frac{17}{100} }^2$ .

Any of the possibilities can happen.

Hence, the required probability is ${\frac{83}{100} }^9 \times \frac{17}{100}$ + ${\frac{83}{100} }^8 \times {\frac{17}{100} }^2$ + ${\frac{83}{100} }^{10}$ .

Find the perimeter of a triangle with vertices A(2,5) B(2,-2) C(5,-2). Round your answer to the nearest tenth and show your work

valina [46]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Question

Find the perimeter of a triangle with vertices A(2,5) B(2,-2) C(5,-2). Round your answer to the nearest tenth and show your work.

perimeter of a triangle = AB+AC+BC

Using the distance formula

AB = sqrt(-2-5)²+(2-2)²

AB = sqrt(-7)²

AB =sqrt(49)

AB =7

BC = sqrt(-2+2)²+(2-5)²

BC = sqrt(0+3²)

BC =sqrt(9)

BC =3

AC= sqrt(-2-5)²+(2-5)²

AC= sqrt(-7)²+3²

AC =sqrt(49+9)

AC =sqrt58

Perimeter = 10+sqrt58
