Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that the angels of a triangle have a sum of 180°. The angles of a rectangle have a sum of 360°. The angels of a pentagon have a sum of 540.
<u>Let me define the each terms.</u>
1. We know that each angle in a triangle is 60°, So there is a three angle in a regular triangle.
2. We know that each angle in a rectangle, is 90°, So there is a four angle in a regular rectangle.
Similarly,
- There is 8 angle in a regular octagon and each angle measurement is 135°.
So, sum of the angles of an octagon = 135° × 8
Sum of the angles of an octagon = 1080°
Therefore, the required sum of the angles of an octagon is 1080°
Properties of Similar Triangles
Please refer to the figure attached.
<span>Corresponding angles are congruent (same measure) So in the figure above, the angle P=P', Q=Q', and R=R'.
<span>
Corresponding sides are all in the same proportion. Above, PQ is twice the length of P'Q'. Therefore, the other pairs of sides are also in that proportion.</span></span>
Answer:
slope of line that is parallel is 1/2
slope of line that is perpendicular is -2
Step-by-step explanation:
parallel lines have the same slope
perpendicular lines have slopes that are opposite and reciprocal
x - 2y = -1
-2y = -x -1
y = 1/2x + 1/2
the coefficient of the 'x' term represents the slope
