Find the area of the regular polygon. pentagon with a radius of 4 ft

1 answer:

5 0

In this problem we need to find the apothem and the length of the side before we can find the area of the entire polygon. Each central angle for a regular pentagon is 360∘5=72∘. So, half of that, to make a right triangle with the apothem, is 36∘. We need to use sine and cosine.
sin36∘4sin36∘8sin36∘n=.5n4=12n=n≈4.7 cos36∘=a44cos36∘=aa≈3.24
Using these two pieces of information, we can now find the area.
A=12(3.24)(5)(4.7)≈38.07 units^2.

How to do surface area

Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply the length and width, or c and b to find their area. Multiply this measurement by two to account for both sides. Add the three separate measurements together. Because surface area is the total area of all of the faces of an object, the final step is to add all of the individually calculated areas together.

What value of Y will satisfy the given equation y divided by 2y — 15 = 7/5

guapka [62]

Answer:

$\huge\boxed{\sf y = \frac{41}{5} \ OR \ y = 8\frac{1}{5} }$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sf 2y-15 = \frac{7}{5} \\\\Adding \ 15 \ to \ both \ sides\\\\2y = \frac{7}{5} + 15\\\\2y = \frac{7+75}{5} \\\\2y = \frac{82}{5} \\\\Dividing \ both \ sides \ bu 2\\\\y = \frac{82}{5*2} \\\\y = \frac{41}{5}$

HELP A.S.A.P!!!! The data to represent average test scores for a class of 16 students includes an outlier value of 78. If the ou

kolezko [41]

When the outlier is removed The mean would increase.

Step-by-step explanation:

Outliers are the value that lies outside the set of data. i.e. the data doesn't fit in the group.

Removing outliers can affect mean more than median. Because outlier removal sometimes affect the median but in a small percentage or sometimes it will remain the same.

Let us prove, consider 16 values one with 78 and other 15 with values nearly 85, 84 that will give the mean value as 84.

78, 84, 82, 86, 84, 85, 83, 86, 82, 85, 84, 83, 86, 85, 86, 85.

Mean = $\frac{Sum of the values}{Number of values}$ .
