Peter has a set of polygonal tiles, where all the polygons are regular and have the same side length. He find that two pentagons

and a decagon can fit together perfectly. Peter also find that a triangle, an octagon, and an n-gon also fit together perfectly. Find n. (Remember that all the tiles are regular polygons.)

Answer:

24 sides

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle at a point = 360°

To find the number of degrees in each interior angle of a regular polygon, we make use of

180(n - 2)/n

There are 8 sides in a regular octagon,

Each interior of a regular octagon= 180(8-2)/8

= 6 * 180/8

= ¾ * 180

= 135°

The interior angle of a regular triangle (equilateral triangle) is 60°

The interior angle of the regular n-gon is given by

360° - 135 - 60°

= 165°

Since the interior angle is 165°

Then

180(n - 2)/n = 165 for the regular n-gon

Solving for n

Multiply both sides by n

180(n - 2) = 165n ------ Open the bracket

180n - 360 = 165n ----- Collect Like Terms

180n - 165n = 360

15n = 360 ----- Divide both sides by 15

n = 360/15

n = 24

Thus, the number of sides of the regular n-gon is 24

2n-7/3 = 15 solve for n
WITCHER [35]
2n- \frac{7}{3} =15 
2n- \frac{7}{3} =15  common denominator is 3
3(2n- \frac{7}{3} )=3*15 distributhing  3 through parantheses
3*2n- \frac{3*7}{3}=3*15
3*2n-7=3*15
6n-7=45   add7
6n=45+7
6n=52 divide by 6
n= \frac{52}{6} simplify
n=8 \frac{2}{3} ⇒ \frac{26}{3}

A triangular table has angles with measures in the ratio 7:9:4. What is the measure of the smallest angle?
Paraphin [41]
The angles must add to 180 degrees.
Since the angles are in the ratio 7:9:4, their measures are not 7, 9, and 4 since 7, 9, and 4 do not add to 180.  If you multiply 7, 9, and 4 by the same number, the new numbers will be in the same ratio. Since we do not know what that number is, we can use x for it.

Multiply 7, 9, and 4 by x to get
7x, 9x, and 4x.
Now add them and set equal to 180.
Then solve for x.

7x + 9x + 4x = 180

20x = 180

x = 9

Now that we know x equals 9, substitute x with 9 and evaluate 7x, 9x, and 4x to find the actual angle measures.

7x = 7 * 9 = 63
9x = 9 * 9 = 81
4x = 4 * 9 = 36

The angles measure 63, 81, and 36 degrees.
