What best describes the area of a polygon

Mathematics
1 answer:
never [62]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The area of any regular polygon is given by the formula: Area = (a x p)/2, where a is the length of the apothem and p is the perimeter of the polygon. Plug the values of a and p in the formula and get the area. As an example, let's use a hexagon (6 sides) with a side (s) length of 10.

The area of a polygon is the two-dimensional set of all points surrounded by the sides of the polygon.

If you're looking for an equation, it varies based on the number of sides and the shape of the polygon.

Step-by-step explanation:

Apothem

A regular polygon is equilateral (it has equal sides) and equiangular (it has equal angles). To find the area of a regular polygon, you use an apothem — a segment that joins the polygon’s center to the midpoint of any side and that is perpendicular to that side (segment HM in the following figure is an apothem).

If you need the geometry and trigonometry I'll post those.  Instead I found an answer at this link: http://jwilson.coe.uga.edu/EMAT6450/Class%20Projects/Scarpelli/Scarpelli_MathematicsBaseballActivity.....
The distance from home plate to the pitcher's mound is 60.5 feet and from home plate to second base is <span>127.28 feet.
Pitcher's Mound to 2nd base = </span><span> <span> <span> 66.78</span> </span>f</span>eet

Given those distances, we KNOW a 50 foot sprinkler will NOT reach home plate and second base from the pitcher's mound.

I didn't figure out the pitcher's mound to 1st or to 3rd, since the question is already answered.

First picture)
I: 5x+2y=-4
II: -3x+2y=12

add I+(-1*II):
5x+2y-(-3x+2y)=-4-12
8x=-16
x=-2

insert x=-2 into I:
5*(-2)+2y=-4
-10+2y=-4
2y=6
y=3

(-2,3)

question 6)
I: totalcost=115=3*childs+5*adults
II: 33=adults+childs
33-adults=childs

insert childs into I:
115=3*(33-adults)+5*adults
115=99-3*adults+5*adults
16=2*adults
8=adults

insert adults into II:
33-8=childs
25=childs

so it's the last option

question 7)
a) y<6 and y>2 can also be written as 2<y<6, so solution 3 exist for example
b) y>6 and y>2 can also be written as 2<6<y, so solution 7 exist for example
c) y<6 and y<2 inverse of b: y<2<6, so for example 1
d) y>6 and y<2: y<2<6<y, this is impossible as y can be only either bigger or smaller than 2 or 6

so it's the last option

question 8)
I: x+y=12
II: x-y=6

subtract: I-II:
x+y-(x-y)=12-6
2y=6
y=3

insert y into I:
x+3=12
x=9

(9,3)

question 9)
I: x+y=6
II: x=y+5

if you take the x=y+5 definition of II and substitute it into I:
(y+5)+y=6

which is the second option :)
