For this case we have by definition, that the sum of the exterior angles of a polygon is equal to 360 degrees, only when considering only one exterior angle for each vertex of the polygon, regardless of the number of sides it possesses. That said we have to:
The external angle of a regular polygon is given by:
Where:
n: It is the number of sides of the polygon
Then, for a nonagon each exterior angle will measure:
Answer:
40 degrees each exterior angle
360 degrees the sum
The only option that meets the root theorem is option b.
<h3>which of the following is a possible root of the polynomial function below?</h3>
The polynomial function is:
The rational root theorem says that if a root is a rational number, then the leading coefficient must be divisible by the denominator of the rational number and the constant term must be divisible by the numerator.
In this case, the constant is 9, and the only option such that the constant is divisible by the numerator is option b: 3
Where 3 is a rational number:
3 = 3/1
The numerator is 3 (which divides 9) and the denominator is 1 (which divides the leading coefficient 9. (notice that it meets the theorem, but it is not an actual root).
