Answer:

x=45°

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle shown in the figure is known as an external angle.

Also, <u>in a regular polygon (like the regular octagon) the sum of all the exterior angles is the same regardless of the number of sides of the figure</u>:

360°

And to find the measure of a single external angle (such as the angle x shown in the figure) we must <u>divide 360 ° by the number of sides n:</u>

\frac{360}{n}

and for the regular octagon, since it has 8 sides:

n=8

so the value of x is:

x=\frac{360}{n}\\ \\x=\frac{360}{8}\\ \\x=45°

the measure of angle x is 45° which is the second option

In your own words, explain why there is no solution to the following equation:| x-6|= -8 Also, knowing this, how does it help to
solniwko [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

So the two lines before and after the expression means absolute value, or modulus of, knowing this, it means that the answer must always yield positive. So if x-6 is positive, it will stay positive, if x-6 is negative, it will turn positive, therefore it can never yield a negative value.

Now im assuming the second question is meant to be absolute value of x-5 is less than 0, because it makes no sense otherwise.

So now knowing that x-5 is always positive, or 0, but this inequality only wants less than 0, this means there are no solutions for the inequality.
