A regular pentagon is created using the bases of five congruent isosceles triangles, joined at a common vertex.The total number

of degrees in the center is 360°. If all five vertex angles meeting at the center are congruent, what is the measure of a base angle of one of the triangles?

It is to be remembered that a a pentagon has five sides. First, we determine each of the central angles by dividing the given sum (360°) by 5. This gives us the answer of 72°. If we let x be the congruent angles in the base and noting that the sum of the internal angles of the triangle is 180°, we have the equation,
                                         72 + x + x = 180°
The value of x from the equation is 54°.

Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the technique performs differently than the traditional method, the system of hypothesis would be:  

Null hypothesis:\mu =10.1  

Alternative hypothesis:\mu \neq 10.1

t=\frac{10.5-10.1}{\frac{1.4}{\sqrt{12}}}=0.990    

p_v =2*P(t_{(11)}>0.990)=0.343    

If we compare the p value and the significance level given \alpha=0.1 we see that p_v>\alpha so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL  reject the null hypothesis, so we can't conclude that the technique performs differently than the traditional method at 10% of signficance.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation  

\bar X=10.5 represent the sample mean

s=1.4 represent the sample standard deviation

n=12 sample size  

\mu_o =10.1 represent the value that we want to test

\alpha=0.1 represent the significance level for the hypothesis test.  

t would represent the statistic (variable of interest)  

p_v represent the p value for the test (variable of interest)  

State the null and alternative hypotheses.  

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the technique performs differently than the traditional method, the system of hypothesis would be:  

Null hypothesis:\mu =10.1  

Alternative hypothesis:\mu \neq 10.1  

If we analyze the size for the sample is < 30 and we don't know the population deviation so is better apply a t test to compare the actual mean to the reference value, and the statistic is given by:  

t=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}  (1)  

t-test: "Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine if the mean is (higher, less or not equal) to an specified value".  

Calculate the statistic

We can replace in formula (1) the info given like this:  

t=\frac{10.5-10.1}{\frac{1.4}{\sqrt{12}}}=0.990    

P-value

The first step is calculate the degrees of freedom, on this case:  

df=n-1=12-1=11  

Since is a two sided test the p value would be:  

p_v =2*P(t_{(11)}>0.990)=0.343  

Conclusion  

If we compare the p value and the significance level given \alpha=0.1 we see that p_v>\alpha so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL  reject the null hypothesis, so we can't conclude that the technique performs differently than the traditional method at 10% of signficance.
