The measure of each exterior angle of a regular polygon is 72 degrees. how many sides does the polygon have?

1 answer:

6 0

If the measure of each exterior angle is 72, the measure of each interior angle is then 180-72=108
the sum of the interior angles of a polygon is (n-2)*180, n is the number of sides
(n-2)*180=108*n
180n-360=108n
180n-108n=360
n=5
the polygon has 5 sides.

What is 04.151515... into a fraction

Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

$\displaystyle 4.\overline{15} = \frac{137}{33}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Start by separating this decimal number into its integer part and its fraction part:

$4.151515\cdots = 4 + 0.151515\cdots$

The most challenging task here is to express $0.151515\cdots$ as a proper fraction. Once that fraction is found, expressing the original number $4.151515\cdots$ will be as simple as rewriting a mixed number as an improper fraction.

Let $x = 0.151515\cdots$ . $(x + 4)$ would then represent the original number.

Note that the repeating digits appear in groups of two. Therefore, if the digits in $x$ are shifted to the left by two places, the repeating part will continue to match:

$\begin{aligned}x = 0.&151515\cdots && \\ 100\, x = 15.& 151515\cdots \end{aligned}$ .

Note, that this "shifting" is as simple as multiplying the initial number by $100$ (same as $10$ raised to the power of the number of digits that needs to be shifted.)
