Find the number of sides of a regular polygon if it's central angle measures 35°.

The [# of sides (n) - 2] × 180° is the formula for the sum of interior angles (IAs) in a regular polygon. And so that sum of all IAs ÷ IA = n
Each central angle is opposite of one side.
And all of the central angles add up to 360°, therefore 35×n = 360
35n/35 = 360/35 = 10.29, but we need to verify: each 35° central angle forms an isosceles triangle with a side of the polygon, and each opposite angle (x) is 1/2 of an interior angle. All 3 angles of a triangle sum to 180°, and 2 angles (x) are equal in an isosceles, so
x + x + 35 = 180
2x + 35 = 180
2x = 145
2x/2 = 145/2
x = 72.5
And each x is 1/2 of an interior angle (IA), therefore 2x = IS
IA = 2 (72.5) = 145
(n - 2) × 180° = IA × n
(n - 2) × 180° = 145n
(n - 2) × 180°÷180 = 145n/180
n - 2 = 29n/36
36n/36 - 72-36 = 29n/36
(36n/36 - 72-36)×36 = (29n/36)×36
36n - 72 = 29n
36n - 29n = 72
7n = 72
7n/7 = 72/7
n = 10.29

Are you sure the central angle was 35, not 36°?? Because we don't get a whole number as the # of sides. How can we have 0.29 of a side?

Last week, the price of cherries at the corner deli was $4.99 per pound. This week, cherries at the same deli are on sale at a 1
sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

The price for 3.75 pounds of cherries is $17.775.

Step-by-step explanation:

The price las week was $ 4.99 and it got a discount of 15% for this week, this means that the price for this week is 100% of the one prior minus 15%, therefore it is 85% of the last price. We need to calculate the price per pound with this discount as shown below:

\text{this week} = \text{last week}*\frac{95}{100}\\\\\text{this week} = 4.99*0.95 = 4.74 \text{ per pound}\\

Since the price is $4.74 per pound and we want to buy 3.75 pounds, then the total amount we need to pay is:

\text{total amount} = 3.75*4.74 = 17.775

The price for 3.75 pounds of cherries is $17.775.

Identify all of the real fifth roots of 1024.
V125BC [204]

Answer:

Real fifth root of 1024 is 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find the value of real fifth root of 1024.

For this let fifth root of 1024 = x

Therefore x^{5} = 1024 = 4^{5}

Or x^{5}=4^{5}

Therefore x = 4

X= 4 is the right answer.
