Complete question is;

Which statements are true about the lines of symmetry of a regular pentagon? Check all that apply.

A) Every line connects two vertices.

B) Every line connects the midpoints of 2 sides.

C) Every line bisects a vertex angle.

D) Every line bisects a side.

E) Every line is perpendicular to a side.

Answer:

C: Every line bisects a vertex angle.

D: Every line bisects a side.

E: Every line is perpendicular to a side.

Step-by-step explanation:

A shape will have a line of symmetry when after the perpendicular line is drawn through from one vertex to the centre of one side, it can be folded and the folded part will sit perfectly on top in such a way that all the edges match.

Now, a pentagon has 5 sides and by implication from the explanation of line of symmetry above, it has 5 lines of symmetry.

Attached below is an image showing the 5 lines of symmetry of a pentagon.

From the attached image, we can see that the lines of symmetry bisects a vertex angle, it bisects a side and is perpendicular to a side.

Thus correct answer is Options C, D & E

x =14

Answer:

m\angle ABC =  51°

Step-by-step explanation:

11. By inscribed angle theorem:

83°=\frac{1}{2} \times (9x+40)°\\\\83°\times 2 = (9x+40)°\\166°= (9x+40)°\\166 = 9x + 40\\166 - 40 = 9x\\126 = 9x\\\\x = \frac{126}{9}\\\\\huge \red {\boxed {x = 14}}

12. Again by inscribed angle theorem:

(5x+11)°=\frac{1}{2} \times (16x-26)°\\\\2\times (5x+11)°= (16x-26)°\\(10x+22)°= (16x-26)°\\10x + 22 = 16x - 26\\22+26 = 16x - 10x\\48= 6x\\\\x = \frac{48}{6}\\\\\huge \purple{\boxed {x = 8}}\\m\angle ABC =  (5x+11)°\\m\angle ABC =  (5\times 8+11)°\\m\angle ABC =  (40+11)°\\\huge \orange{\boxed {m\angle ABC =  51°}} \\

Samantha is making soup. to make the broth, she combines 2/5 cup of vegetable stock and 2/3 cup of chicken soup stock. Boiling
storchak [24]
First,you do,2/5+2/3,but since you will need a common denominator,you will find the least common denominator for 5 and 3.The LCD(Least Common Denominator) will be 15 since both 5 and 3 could go in 15.Now,the equation looks like this: 2/15+2/15 since whatever you do to the bottom numbers,you NEED to do to the top numbers:2 and 2.Now you will need to do,2x3,since 5x3=15 and the answer to 2x3=6 then you do 2x5,since 3x5=15 the answer is 10 now the equation looks like this:6/15+10/15 now you add them together,and the answer will be 16/15 and if you want the answer to be a mixed number,it would look like this: 1 1/15. Hope this helps!
