Suppose a polygon has 72 sides. If the polygon is regular, what is its angle of rotation?

1 answer:

4 0

The angle of rotation is the minimum angle in which you rotate a regular polygon such that the figure appears unchanged. The formula for that is dividing one angle of revolution by its number of sides.

Angle of Rotation = 360°/n
Angle of Rotation = 360°/72 = 5°

Answer:

The correct answer is E. Neither the frequency nor the wavelength is affected. Explanation: The wave frequency does not affect the speed of that wave. An increase in frequency of a wave causes a decrease in wavelength while the wave speed remains the constant. The speed of the waves is significantly higher at higher tensions.

$5y+2x = -7~~~~~......(i)\\\\y = -2x +5 ~~~~~~.....(ii)\\\\(i) -(ii):\\\\5y+2x -y = -7-(-2x+5)\\\\\implies 4y +2x = -7 +2x -5\\\\\implies 4y +2x -2x = -12\\\\\implies 4y = -12\\\\\implies y = - \dfrac{12}4 = -3\\\\\\\text{Substitute}~ y=-3~ \text{in equation (ii):}\\\\\\-3 = -2x +5\\\\\implies 2x = 5 +3 \\\\\implies 2x = 8\\\\\implies x = \dfrac 82 =4\\\\\text{Hence,}~ x = 4$
