Answer: 6units

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it is a regular polygon, and it has 3 equal sides it means the polygon is a quadrilateral.

From the diagram,

5 - 2x = -4x + 9 ( side of quadrilateral )

Solving for x in the equation

-2x + 4x = 9 - 5 ( collection of like terms in simple linear equation )

2x = 4

Divide through by the coefficient of x which is 2

x = 2.

Therefore, the perimeter of the polygon which equals to the total length of the polygon is

Perimeter = 2 + 2 + 2

= 6units

Answer:

$y=0.2*4^{x}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice when x increases 1, y is 4 times the previous one, so

the function is like $y=C*4^{x}$

To determine the constant C, put any pair of (x, y)

Use x = 0, y = 0.2, so

0.2 = $C*4^{0}$ = C * 1 = C

then $y=0.2*4^{x}$

Answer:

15.09

Step-by-step explanation:

with reference angle 28°

perpendicular (p) = 8

base (b) = x

Now

tan 28° = p / b

0.53 = 8 / x

x = 8 / 0.53

x = 15.09
