Answer:

-4/3

Step-by-step explanation:

slope = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) = (-6 - 2)/(11 - 5) = -8/6 = -4/3

The formula of a slope:

$m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

We have B(5, 2) and C(11, -6). Substitute:

$m=\dfrac{-6-2}{11-5}=\dfrac{-8}{6}=-\dfrac{8:2}{6:2}=-\dfrac{4}{3}$

<h3>Answer: A. -4/3</h3>

Find the measure of each angle of a regular polygon with 8 sides

mr Goodwill [35]

$\bf \textit{sum of all interior angles in a polygon}\\\\
\stackrel{sum}{\theta n}=180(n-2)\quad 
\begin{cases}
\theta =angle~in\\
\qquad degrees\\
n=\textit{number of sides}\\
---------\\
n=8
\end{cases}\implies \theta 8=180(8-2)
\\\\\\
\theta 8=180(6)\implies \theta 8=1080\implies \theta =\cfrac{1080}{8}\implies \theta =135$

Four of the angles of a pentagon have measures 40, 80, 115, and 165. Find the measure of the fifth angle. ...?

Tresset [83]

The sum of the interior angles of a pentagon is 540 degrees. We find the measure of the fifth angle by summing up the four angles given and subtracting this to the total sum. We calculate as follows:

Fifth angle = 540 - (40+80+115+165) = 140 degrees

Hope this answers the question.
