No, because when adding 1 to any odd number it will become even, and all even numbers besides 2 are not prime. This means that if n was 1 the resulting number would be prime, since 2 is prime.

alexandr1967 [171]
Since the angles add to 180°, angle F is 72°.

Using the law of sines,

DF/sin72° = 24/sin45°
x = 32.28

So, did you just guess at A?

This is just an answer from another website, but it should still work.
