Answer: The sum of the number of angles in a polygon is (n-2) * 180, where n is the number of sides, so the sum of the angles of a 17-sided polygon is (17-2) * 180 = 2700.

Find the surface area of each shipping package. Which package has the greater surface area? Does the same package have a greater

Kryger [21]

Answer:

greater area: A
no, B has the greater volume

Step-by-step explanation:

The relevant area and volume formulas are ...

A = 2(LW +H(L +W))

V = LWH

When there are multiple instances of the calculations to be done, it is convenient to let a spreadsheet do them. The results are attached.

Figure A has the larger area.

Figure B has the larger volume.

<em>Additional comment</em>

The more "cube-like" the prism is, the less area it will have for the same volume. Here, package B is more "cube-like" than package A. (The ratio of largest-to-smallest dimensions is smaller for package B.)

2 right triangles have identical angle measures but different side lengths. The first triangle has side lengths of 6, 10, 8 and

lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

Dilation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The first triangle has side lengths of 6, 10, 8 and the second triangle has side lengths of 3, 5, 4 such that these two right triangles have identical angle measures but different side lengths.

To choose: the correct option

Dilation refers to a transformation when a figure is reduced or enlarged.

Each side of the large triangle is halved to get the small triangle.

So, Dilation transformation maps the large triangle onto the small triangle
