Answer:
a) x = 30°
b) mRS = x = 30°
mST = 4x = 4(30°) = 120°
mTU = 4x = 4(30°) = 120°
mUR = 3x = 3(30°) = 90°
Question:
The complete question as found on Chegg website:
In the diagram below, secants PT and PU have been drawn from exterior point P such that the four arcs
intercepted have the following ratio of measurements:
mRS : mST :MTU : mUR=1:4:4:3
(a) If mRS = x, then write an equation that could be used to solve for x
and find the value of x.
(b) State the measure of each of the four arcs.
mRS =
mST =
MTU
MUR =
Step-by-step explanation:
Find attached the diagram related to the question
mRS : mST : mTU : mUR = 1:4:4:3
Since mRS = x
Writing the ratios of the measure of angle in terms of mRS:
mST = 4× mRS = 4×x = 4x
mTU = 4× mRS = 4×x = 4x
mUR= 3× mRS = 3×x = 3x
The sum of measure the 4 measures of arc = 360° (sum of angle in a circle)
mRS + mST + mTU + mUR = 360°
x + 4x + 4x + 3x = 360
12x = 360
x = 360/12
x = 30°
b) The measure of angle
mRS = x = 30°
mST = 4x = 4(30°) = 120°
mTU = 4x = 4(30°) = 120°
mUR = 3x = 3(30°) = 90°
It seems to me, that if you were to add the price of all three items together, then multiply by 7.5%, you'd have the answer. Remember that 7.5% = .075 ... in other words, that is the number you would multiply the sum of the items by. Does that help?
From calculations, we can say that the given tiles will not fit together perfectly.
<h3>How to find the sum of interior angles of a Polygon?</h3>
If the tiles join perfectly at a point, sum of all angles around the joining point should be 360°.
Expression for the measure of the interior angle of a polygon,
Interior angle of a polygon = [(n - 2) * 180]/n
Interior angle of a pentagon = [(5 - 2) * 180]/5 = 108°
Interior angle of a hexagon = [(6 - 2) * 180]/6 = 120°
Interior angle of an octagon = [(8 - 2) * 180]/8 = 135°
To prove that the given tiles fit together perfectly → Sum of all the angles around the common point should be 360°
Sum of all interior angles = 108° + 120° + 135° = 363°
Therefore, given tiles will not fit together perfectly.

Answer:
a = 2
b = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given :
(ar^b)^4 = 16r^20 ; a and b are positive integers :
Opening the bracket :
a^4r^4b = 16r^20
a^4 = 16 - - - - - (1)
r^4b = r^20 - - - (2)
a^4 = 16
Take the 4th root of both sides :
(a^4)^(1/4) = 16^1/4
a = 2
From (2)
r^4b = r^20
4b = 20
Divide both sides by 4
4b/4 = 20/4
b = 5
Hence ;
a = 2
b = 5
Answer:
Option B. n
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
A regular polygon is a convex polygon whose angles are all congruent.The number of lines of symmetry in a regular polygon is equal to the number of sides a regular polygon has.
therefore
the answer is option B. n
