Answer:

The regular decagon has 10 axes of symmetry.

Step-by-step explanation:

A regular decagon is made up of ten sides and ten vertices. Each vertex is located exactly in front of another vertex (opposite). Then, by drawing axes that join two opposite vertices, five axes of symmetry can be constructed.

Each side is located exactly opposite the other side of the decagon (opposite). Then, joining the midpoints of each side, with their respective opposite, five axes of symmetry are constructed for the decagon.

Conclusion: the regular decagon has 10 axes of symmetry.

The number of sides is the same as the number of lines of symmetry and the order of rotational symmetry.

So, a regular decagon would have 10 lines of symmetry.

What are the solution(s) of x squared minus 4 = 0? x = negative 4 or x = 4 x = negative 2 or x = 2 x = 2 x = 4

frosja888 [35]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression is

x^2 - 4

This is a quadratic expression.

To find the solution, we will equate the the expression to zero. It becomes

x^2 - 4 = 0

Add 4 to the left hand side of the equation and the right hand side of the equation. It becomes.

x^2 - 4 + 4 = 0 + 4

x^2 = 4

Take square root of the right hand side of the equation and left hand side of the equation. It becomes

√x^2 = √4

x = ± 2

x = 2 or x = - 2

F the height of the parallelogram shown is decreased by 1 inch and the base is decreased by 2 inches, what is the area of the ne

TEA [102]

Answer:

The area of the new parallelogram is (bh - 2b - h + 2).

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a parallelogram is:

$\text{Area}=\text{base}\times \text{height}$

Let the original base be denoted by, b and the original height be denoted by, h.

It is provided that the height of the parallelogram is decreased by 1 inch and the base is decreased by 2 inches.

The new base and height are:

b₁ = b - 1

h₁ = h - 2

The new area of the parallelogram is given by:

$\text{New Area}=b_{1}\times h_{1}\\\\=(b-1)(h-2)\\\\=bh-2b-h+2$

Thus, the area of the new parallelogram is (bh - 2b - h + 2).
