Mathematics
1 answer:
SSSSS [86.1K]2 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°

Answer:

y = 4x + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Find slope:

y2-y1/x2-x1

12-8/1-0 = 4/1 = 4

Slope = 4

2) Plug in a point in point-slope form

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-8=4(x-0) =

y-8=4x-0 -> add 8 to both sides

y=4x+8

Solve the Equation |x-8|=16
choli [55]
|x-8| = 16
⇒ x-8= 16 or x-8= -16
⇒ x= 16+ 8 or x= -16+ 8
⇒ x= 24 or x= -8

Final answer: x= 24 or x= -8~
