Given a regular pentagon,

Two sides of the pentagon are produced to form angle x.

Therefore, x is an interior angle

We know that the Sum of exterior angles of a pentagon = 360°

In a regular pentagon, all angles are equal,

Therefore, each exterior angle of a regular pentagon = 360/5 = 72 degrees

We also know that an exterior angle and its corresponding interior angle are supplements.

Therefore, each interior angle of a regular pentagon = 180 – 72 = 108 degrees

Therefore, x = 108 degrees

Answer:

The first graph best represent the given scenario.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Kent walked to the bus stop, then sat and waited until the bus arrived. He rode the bus for 25 minutes, then walked the last 3 blocks to work. we have to find which graph best represent the scenario.

In the first graph, it is given The line increases for 10 minutes means the distance as well as time increases i.e Kent walked for 10 minutes then, stays horizontal for 15 minutes means no distance covered i.e stop or wait for 15 minutes. After that graph increases rapidly for another 25 minutes, that means rode the bus for 25 minutes then increases slowly for 5 minutes indicate walked to work.

The above graph best represent the scenario.

All three option is analysed by graphing which doesn't show the above given scenario.
