Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Side PQ is a chord through the center and angle R is a right angle. This means that side PQ is the diameter of the circle.

Let O represent the center of the circle.

If the measure of arc QR is 40°, it means that the central angle formed by arc QR is 40°. Side OR and side OQ are equal because they are both radius of the circle. Therefore, ∆QOR is an isosceles triangle and the base angles are equal.

Therefore, ∠PQR = ∠ORQ

Since the sum of the angles in a triangle is 180°, then

∠PQR = (180 - 40)/2 = 140/2

∠PQR = 70°

belka [17]

Answer:

If you want to spend no less than $40, and you want to spend twice as much on the first gift (gift x), you can spend $26 on gift x. On the second gift (gift y), you can spend $13. You will spend a total of $39 on both gifts which is less than $40 and have spend twice as much on the first gift as you did the second ($13 x 2= $26).

Math experts please help!!!!​
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

x is 72 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the measure of x, you need to know the sum of the interior angles of the pentagon.

Sum = (n - 2) x 180

Sum = (5 - 2) x 180

Sum = 3 x 180

Sum = 540

Now divide this by 5, the number of sides

540/5 = 108 degrees for each angle of the pentagon.

To find the measure of x, look at the opposite angle, which is 108 degrees

180 - 108 = 72

The measure of angle x is 72 degrees.

Katrina deposited $500 into a savings account that pays 4% simple interest. How much interest will she earn in 3 years if she ma
Dovator [93]

Answer: the amount of interest after 3 years is $60

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for determining simple interest is expressed as

I = PRT/100

Where

I represents interest paid on the amount of money deposited.

P represents the principal or amount of money deposited.

R represents interest rate on the deposit.

T represents the duration of the deposit in years.

From the information given,

P = $500

R = 4%

T = 3 years

Therefore,

I = (500 × 4 × 3)/100

I = $60
