Answer:
x = 8.69
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that the perimeter of the dodecagon is 54, so each edge will be 54/12
54/12 = 4.5 cm
if we draw the lines to remove 6 vertices and form a hexagon, 6 triangles with 2 sides of 4.5 cm are formed.
we know that the angle of each vertex is 150 ° because it is a dodecagon
if we apply the law of cosines we can take the other side of the triangle, since we only need 2 side and the opposite angle to the side we want to know
a would be our x
b = 4.5
c = 4.5
A = 150°
a^2 = b^2 + c^2 - 2bc * cos (A)
x^2 = 4.5^2 + 4.5^2 - 2 * 4.5 * 4.5 * cos (150)
x^2 = 20.25 + 20.25 - 40.50 * -0.866
x^2 = 40.50 + 35.07
x = √ 75.57
x = 8.69
The formula is right there in the question. Just write '16' in place of 'b' and write '5' in place of 'h', then do the multiplication and you have the area. / / / If you don't get 40 square mm then you have a mistake somewhere.
X= -36
1/4x-2=-11 Add 2 to both sides
1/4x=-9 multiply each side by 4
x=-36
