Answer:
4 pies
Step-by-step explanation:
each pie is gonna have 8 pieces and 8x4 is 32
This likely has a pattern. Lets see if we can find it.
The sum of a triangle is 180
The sum of a 4 sided figure is 360
The sum of a 5 sided figure is 3*180 = 540
The sum of a 6 sided figure is 4*180 = 720
==========================
The pattern looks like it it (( n-2 )*180) for any polygon where n is the number of sides of the polygon.
You can convince yourself (but this is not a formal proof) by starting with a 6 sided figure. Pick one point on the figure where 2 sides meet. Draw diagonals to all the points not connected to the point you've chosen. You should be able to get 4 such diagonals. You have created 4 triangles.
4*180 = 720 just what your estimate said.d
8 sides will give 6*180 = 1080 degrees and if you keep going on the above table you will see 1080 come up for 8. I'd post a diagram but I don't know how to upload it.
This procedure is extremely important. There is a new math around where these kinds of problems are solved by reducing them to much simpler questions, and getting an answer for them. The pattern is what you are looking for.
Now you can do the rest of the questions.
Pentagon: (5 - 2) * 180 =
Octagon: (8 - 2) * 180 =
dodecagon (12 - 2)*180=
40 sides 38*180 =
100 sides 98 * 180 =
Answer:
81, 27, 48, 77
Step-by-step explanation:
The two angles are a linear pair.
(Explanations down below!)
Linear pair angles must add up to 180 degrees. You can tell that the two angles add up to 180 degrees because they form a straight line (which is 180 degrees).
Complementary angles add up to 90 degrees. The two angles are not complementary because they do not form a 90 degree angle (right triangle, square in corner, like a L shape).
Vertical angles are opposite each other and are equal to one another. These angles are adjacent to each other and do not look similar.
Answer:
$899.15
0.85(1199) - 120
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the purchase total, multiply the price by the percent paid and subtract the certificate.
The store offers a 15% discount. This means you pay 85% of the price. So the discounted price is 0.85(1199) = 1019.15
Subtract the certificate 1019.15 - 120 = 899.15
The composite function is 0.85(1199) - 120.
