Answer:

8 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

72 square inches = \frac{1}{2} × 18 × h

9h = 72

h = 8 inches

Which figures are polygons
alexira [117]

<em><u>Polygon:</u></em> a figure formed by coplanar segments

with one distinct interior region

Figure A, Figure B, and Figure D would be considered polygons.

Notice that those figures I mentioned above are

composed of line segments, and nothing else.

In addition, these figures don't have two separate

interior regions and figures that do aren't polygons.

Figure C would not be a polygon because

it's formed by a curve rather than line segments.

The product of four less than a number and nine is fifteen <br> *Need help on this please
densk [106]

Answer:

The easiest way is to determine what number times 9 equals 15.

9x = 15

x = 15 / 9   = 5/3

The original number is 4 + 5/3 = 5 (2/3)

Then we look at the problem again,

5 and (2/3) minus 4 = 5/3 and

5/3 * 9 = 45/3 = 9
