If you are given the measure of each interior angle (162 degrees) of a regular polygon. how many sides does the polygon have? If you look at a pentagon first where the interior angle is 108 deg then you see. The angle at the center is 180-162=18 deg and 360/18=20 so the polygon has 20 sides.
Hope this helps you !!

The area of the triangle above will equal one half of a rectangle that is 5 units long and units wide. (Input only whole numbers

Answer:

<h2>Width of the rectangle is 2</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

A rectangle can is made up of two right angled triangle as shown.

Since area of a rectangle = $base * height$

Area of one of the triangle = $\frac{1}{2}\ * \ area\ of\ the\ rectangle$

The length and width of the triangle will be the same as that of the rectangle i.e 5units long and 2units wide

Area of one of the triangle = $\frac{1}{2} * 5 * 2$

Area of one of the triangle = 5units²

The area of the triangle above will equal one half of a rectangle that is 5 units long and 2 units wide.

when asked to factor the x^2 - 100, a student gives the answer (x -10) (x-10). what is wrong with this answer?

aalyn [17]

$x^2-100\\\\=x^2-10^2\\\\=(x+10)(x-10)\\\\\text{The difference of two squares formula is}~ a^2 -b^2 =(a+b)(a-b),\\\\\text{So, the student did not apply it properly}$
