An exterior angle of a regular convex polygon is 40°. What is the number of sides of the polygon?

seraphim [82]

Answer:

option B

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum of interior angles of a polygon with n sides:

$= (n - 2 )\times 180$

$Therefore, Each \ interior \ angle = (\frac{n - 2}{n} )\times 180$

$Sum \ of \ one \ of \ the \ interior \ angle \ with \ its \ exterior \ angle \ is \ 180^\circ$

$[ \ because \ straight \ line \ angle = 180^\circ \ ]$

That is ,

$Exterior \ angle + Interior \ angle = 180^\circ\\\\40^ \circ + (\frac{n-2}{n}) \times 180 = 180^\circ\\\\40 n + 180n - 360 = 180n\\\\40n = 180n - 180n + 360 \\\\40n = 360 \\\\n = 9$

Sum of exterior angles of a regular polygon = 360

Given 1 exterior angle of the regular polygon is 40

Therefore ,

$n \times 40 = 360\\\\n = \frac{360}{40} \\\\n = 9$

4/5 - /7 =

4/5 - 2/7

5 * 7 = 35

7 * 4 = 28

5 * 2 = 10

28/35 - 10/35 = 18/35

All the items on the sale rack were 75 percent off their original price.

tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

112 $ is the original price

Step-by-step explanation:

$x \times 0.75 = 84 \\ x = 84 \div 0.75 \\ x = 112$

you have to think that the original price multiplied by 0.75 (also known as 75%) gave the result of what he saves i.e 84 $. So we put up an equation with the original price multiplied by 75% which equals the 84 $ he saved on buying that item on sale

BThe wooden treehouse has horizontal siding that is parallel to the base. What are the LM and MN to the nearest hundredth?

xeze [42]

Answer:

LM = 2.82 ft

MN = 2.39 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

We suppose ΔGNF is isosceles and GF bisect ∠NGF, so that GK ⊥ NF

LH // MJ // NK

GL / GH = LM / HJ = MN / JK

11.3 / 10.4 = LM / 2.6 = MN / 2.2

LM = 11.3 / 10.4 x 2.6 = 2.82

MN = 11.3 / 10.4 x 2.2 = 2.39
