Answer: There are 190 handshakes takes place.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of people in the party = 20

Here, n = 20

So, the number of handshakes would be

\dfrac{n(n-1)}{2}\\\\=\dfrac{20(20-1)}{2}\\\\=\dfrac{20\times 19}{2}\\\\=10\times 19\\\\=190

Hence, there are 190 handshakes takes place.

Find the missing dimension of each triangle described height 14 inches area 245 inches Square
Amiraneli [1.4K]
Given:
Triangle 
height 14 inches
area 245 inches square

Formula in finding the area of a triangle is:

Area = (height * base) / 2

The base is missing, so we need to compute its value using the given figures.

245 = (14 * b) / 2
245 * 2 = 14b
490 = 14b
490/14 = b
35 = b

What is a supplementary angle??
Olin [163]
A single angle is generally not considered to be supplementary. Supplementary angles are angles that equal 180° when they are added together. For example, 70° and 110° are supplementary because they equal 180°.

However, I guess the supplementary angle can be the angle that must be added to another to total 180°. For example, 80° is the supplementary angle of 100°.
