1. First, you must apply the formula for calculate the sum of the interior angles of a regular polygon, which is shown below:


 (n-2) × 180°


 "n" is the number of sides of the polygon (n=5).


 2. Then, the sum of the interior angles of the pentagon, is:


 (5-2)x180°=540°


 3. The problem says that the measure of each of the other interior angles is equal to the sum of the measures of the two acute angles and now you know that the sum of all the angles is 540°, then, you have:


 α+α+2α+2α+2α=540°

 8α=540°

 α=540°/8

 α=67.5°


 4. Finally, the larger angle is:


 2α=2(67.5°)=135°


 5. Therefore, the answer is: 135°

The wading pool shown is a trapezoidal prism with a total volume of 286 cubic feet. What is the missing dimension? First base: 8
harkovskaia [24]
To find the missing dimension you will use the formula for finding the volume of a prism and solve for the missing dimension.  In this case 2ft is how deep the pool is and you will solve for the width of the pool.

V = Bh, where B is the area of the base.  In this case, use the area of a trapezoid formula.

286 = 1/2h(8 +13)2
<u>286</u> = <u>21h</u>
21      21
h = 13.6

The width of the wading pool is approximately 13.6 feet.

Please be kind and help me on this question.<br> WARNING: only if your good at math thank you
AVprozaik [17]

Short Answer: The first three are absolutely true. Congruency is maintained if all you are doing is shifting the figure 8 spaces away. Since the figures are congruent, their corresponding parts are equal and the statements made are always true. That's the guiding principle.


A is true. See the short answer.


B is True. You have gone 8 units away. The distance between the old G and the new one is 8 units. This is not a congruency property but it is true because it is given. You haven't altered the shape or rotatated it.


C is true by conguency. You have just shifted things 8 units. You have maintained equality and you have maintained distance between corresponding parts.


That leaves D. If the figures are regular, that will be true. If they are not regular, non corresponding external angles cannot be guaranteed to be true.

Answer:

HI = 8

TU = 45

Step-by-step explanation:

→ Find the scale factor enlargement

45 ÷ 10 = 4.5

→ Multiply JI by the scale factor to find it

10 × 4.5 = 45

→ Divide UV by the scale factor to find it

36 ÷ 4.5 = 8
