Answer:
The measure of the vertex angle is 94 degrees ⇒ A
Step-by-step explanation:
- In any triangle, the sum of the measures of its interior angle is 180°
- In the isosceles triangle, the two base angles are equal in measures
∵ In an isosceles triangle, the measure of the base angle = (2x + 5)
∵ The base angles of the isosceles triangles are equal in measures
∴ The measures of the base angles are (2x + 5), (2x + 5)
∵ The measure of the vertex angle = (5x - 1)
∵ The sum of the measure of the three angles = 180°
∴ (2x + 5) + (2x + 5) + (5x - 1) = 180
→ Add the like terms in the left side
∵ (2x + 2x + 5x) + (5 + 5 + -1) = 180
∴ 9x + 9 = 180
→ Subtract 9 from both sides
∴ 9x + 9 - 9 = 180 - 9
∴ 9x = 171
→ Divide both sides by 9 to find x
∴ x = 19
→ Substitute the value of x in the measure of the vertex angle to find it
∵ The measure of the vertex angle = 5x - 1
∴ The measure of the vertex angle = 5(19) - 1
∴ The measure of the vertex angle = 95 - 1
∴ The measure of the vertex angle = 94°
∴ The measure of the vertex angle is 94 degrees
Answer:
Approximately 50 square feet (50.24 to be exact)
Step-by-step explanation:
If you're using 3.14 for π, and the area of a circle is A=πr2,
(3.14)(4)^2 =?
(3.14)(16) = 50.24
Therefore the answer would be about 50 square feet.
