Answer:
156°
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of the interior angles of a polygon is
sum = 180° (n - 2) ← n is the number of sides
Here n = 15 , then
sum = 180° × 13 = 2340°
interior angle = =
= 156°
Answer:
- 15 m
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>Refer to attached picture</em>
- The height = h
- Angles of elevation 22.6° and 38.3°
- Closer distance = d
<u>Use tangent to solve</u>
- tan 22.6° = h/(d + 17) ⇒ h = (d + 17) tan 22.6° ⇒ h = 0.42(d + 17)
- tan 38.3° = h/d ⇒ h = d tan 38.3° ⇒ h = 0.79d
<u>Compare the equations above and find the value of d:</u>
- 0.42(d + 17) = 0.79d
- 0.42d + 7.14 = 0.79d
- 0.79d - 0.42d = 7.14
- 0.37 d = 7.14
- d = 7.14/0.37
- d = 19.3 m
<u>Now find the value of h:</u>
- h = 0.79d
- h = 0.79*19.3
- h = 15
