If the sum of interior angle measures of a polygon is 720, how many sides does the polygon have?

NISA [10]

Since the interior is 720 divide it by 180 and you will get 4 so 4=n-2 where the n means number of sides. Move the 4 over to n=4+2 and you get n=6

Pablo wants to build a rectangular pen for the pig he is raising in his agriculture class. Pablo only has 36 feet of fencing. Wh

Answer:

Area of the rectangular pen is: $18 \,x-x^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to specify that the perimeter of the rectangular area of side x adds to the amount of fence Pablo has (36 feet). Recall as well that the opposite sides of a rectangle are equal, so if there is a side of length x, there must be another one of this size as well (a total of 2 x in the perimeter),let's assume that the perpendicular sides to x are of length y, then:

Perimeter= 2 x + 2 y = 36

so, 2 (x+y) = 36 then (x+y) = 18

and therefore the side y should be:

y = 18 - x

Now we can write the formula for representing the area of the rectangle (product of both quantities: x * y

$Area=x\,*\,y = x\,(18-x) =18 \,x-x^2$
