The interior of a regular polygon is 5 times the exterior angle
1 answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The interior angle of a polygon is given by
The exterior angle of a polygon is given by
where n is the number of sides of the polygon
The statement
The interior of a regular polygon is 5 times the exterior angle is written as
Solve the equation
That's
Since the denominators are the same we can equate the numerators
That's
180n - 360 = 1800
180n = 1800 + 360
180n = 2160
Divide both sides by 180
<h3>n = 12</h3><h2>I).</h2>The interior angle of the polygon is
The answer is
<h2>150°</h2><h2>II.</h2>Interior angle + exterior angle = 180
From the question
Interior angle = 150°
So the exterior angle is
Exterior angle = 180 - 150
We have the answer as
<h2>30°</h2><h2>III.</h2>The polygon has 12 sides
<h2>IV.</h2>The name of the polygon is
<h2>Dodecagon</h2>Hope this helps you.

Answer: 336.4447 feet
Step-by-step explanation: from the picture I attached to this answer, you will see how I represented the question in a diagram
Point A being the point of his friends car, point B being the point of the hot air balloon when he noticed the angle of depression to his friends car to be 37 degrees, point C being the point of the hot air balloon after passing his friends car and noticing the angle of depression to be 38 degrees
From my diagram, I labeled y as the distance between B and C and we are told he traveled when a speed of 6 feet per second with a constant altitude, and after 1 and a half minutes he reached point C, which is 90 seconds
To get value of y we multiply the speed and the time, 90 multiplied by 6 which will give 540 feet
From my diagram, I calculated the angle inside the triangle to be 105, we all know the sum of angles in a straight line to be 180, and also knowing alternate angles, we have 37 and 38 degree as the angle outside the triangle at that point, so adding both angle 37+38=75 and subtracting that from 180 we get 105
So the get the distance between him and his friends when the angle of depression is 38 degree, which is the distance between point A and C which I labeled x, we use the sin rule
Sin rule states that the ratio between the length of a side of a triangle and the sin of the angle opposite it is constant for all sides of the triangle,
The steps are also solved in the picture I sent
So we have the ratio of x and sin37 is also equal to the ratio of 540 and sin105
So x divided by sin37 equals 540 divided by sin105
Sin37 equals 0.6018, sin105 equals 0.9659
So making x the subject of formula
We get x will be equal to (540*0.6018)/0.9659 which will give you 336.4447 feet
