20 POINTS!!!! FULL ANSWERS PLEASE Shannon is making a circle graph to show the type of weather for the past month. There are 12
sunny days, 8 cloudy days without rain, and 10 rainy days. When drawing the sector to show the number of cloudy days without rain, what angle measure should Shannon use? Justify your answer
1 answer:
Just to make it clear here is the graph. I was gone so long, it destroyed my answer.
Very briefly
8/30 * 360 = 96 which is the angle for the cloudy days.
12/30 * 360 = 144 which is the angle for the sunny days
10/30 * 360 = 120 which is the angle for the rainy days.
The graph shows how this would be plotted. It's not really well done, but it is there.

In similar figures, the angle measures are the same but the side lengths are different. So in #4, x = 42. Since all the angles of a quadrilateral added up equal 360, then y is 360-90-90-42=138. For number 5, make sure you match up the sides correctly in your ratio: 
. You could cross multiply to get 4x=16, and x = 4, or you could just realize that reducing 4/8 will give you 2/4 and x = 4. Going back to the idea that in similar shapes corresponding angles are the same measure, x in #6 is 63
