How is the formula for finding the sum of interior angle measures of polygons dervived

Mathematics
1 answer:
SSSSS [86.1K]3 years ago
8 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Draw lines from one vertex to the other vertices, splitting the polygon into triangles.  If the polygon has n sides, there will be n−2 triangles.  Each triangle's angles add up to 180°.  So the sum of all the interior angles is:

S = (n−2) 180°

Draw a quadrilateral with the given description
mash [69]
By definition, a quadrilateral is a general term for a parallelogram and a rhombus. They are both 4-sided two-dimensional shapes with two sets of parallel sides. However, a rhombus is a special case. It has equal sides. Consequently, all its angles are equal. Therefore, the resultant drawing is alike to what's in the attached picture. But technically, all its sides are equal to 6 cm and all its angles are equal to 80°.

Four friends ordered a pizza.Christopher ate 1/5, Emma ate 0.27, and Jamie ate the rest.what percent did Jamie eat?
DENIUS [597]
Percent means parts out of 100

so
1/5=0.20
chris+em+jam=100%=1
0.20+0.27+jam=1
0.47+jam=1
minus 0.47 both sides
jam=0.53
jam=53/100
jam=53%

jamie ate 53%

The number of boxes of food that six volunteers collected for the food drive is given in the table below.
shutvik [7]

Answer:

The mean absolute value is 7.7, when rounded to the nearest tenth.

Step-by-step explanation:

1.) To get the mean absolute deviation you have to find the mean first:

  • 32 + 35 + 20 + 16 + 28 + 13 = 144 ÷ 6 = 24

2.) Then, you have to find the difference of each element in your data set that is away from the mean. Then, you have to find the absolute values of the answers:

  • 32 - 24 = | 8 | → 8
  • 35 - 24 = | 11 | → 11
  • 20 - 24 = | -4 | → 4
  • 16 - 24 = | -8 | → 8
  • 28 - 24 = | 4 | → 4
  • 13 - 24 = | -11 | → 11

3.) Then, you have to find the mean of the absolute values:

  • 8 + 11 + 4 + 8 + 4 + 11 = 46 ÷ 6 = 7.6666666666666666666666666666667‬ = 7.7
