Step-by-step explanation:
When I saw this, I said to myself "Self ! We don't know anything about
decagons.", and then I went searching online for stuff about decagons.
This just goes to show how stupid I can be when I don't take a little time
to THINK before I go running around screaming.
-- When you draw all the lines from the center to the vertices of the
decagon, you'll have 10 little triangles.
-- The area of the whole thing is 161 square inches, so the area of each
little triangle is 1/10 of that . . . . . <em>16.1 square inches</em>.
-- The area of each little triangle is (1/2) (base) (height), just like
every other triangle.
The base is the 4.6 inches of one side of the decagon.
Area = (1/2) (base) (height)
Multiply each side by 2: 2 x area = (base) x (height)
Divide each side by (base): (2 x area) / (base) = height
Height = (2 x 16.1) / (4.6) = <em>7 inches</em> .
Let that be a lesson to both of us.

Answer:
The coordinates of b are: (x, y) = (3, -4)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Given that the midpoint of the ab is:
The coordinates of a are:
To determine
The coordinates of b = ?
Let b (x, y) be the coordinates of b.
Given that the midpoint of the ab is m(-2, -1)
Thus,
(x - 7) / 2 = -2, (y + 2) /2 = -1
now solving
(x - 7) / 2 = -2
(x - 7) = -2 × 2
x - 7 = -4
adding 7 in both sides
x - 7 + 7 = -4 + 7
x = 3
and solving
(y + 2) /2 = -1
(y + 2) = -1 × 2
y + 2 = -2
subtracting 2 from both sides
y + 2 - 2 = -2 - 2
y = -4
Thus,
The coordinates of b are: (x, y) = (3, -4)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Unit rates are:</u>
- Brand A glue = $2.08/8 = $0.26 per oz
- Brand B glue = $1.62/6 = $0.27 per oz
Brand A glue is cheaper, so is the better buy
