Answer:
The measure of one angle of a regular convex 20-gon is 162°
Step-by-step explanation:
* Lets explain how to solve the problem
- A convex polygon is a polygon with all the measures of its interior
angles less than 180°
- In any polygon the number of its angles equal the number of its sides
- A regular polygon is a polygon that is all angles are equal in measure
and all sides are equal in length
- The rule of the measure of an angle of a regular polygon is
, where m is the measure of each interior
angle in the polygon and n is the numbers of the sides or the angles
of the polygon
* Lets solve the problem
- The polygon is convex polygon of 20 sides (20 angles)
- The polygon is regular polygon
∵ The number of the sides of the polygon is 20 sides
∴ n = 20
∵ The polygon is regular
∴ All angles are equal in measures
∵ The measure of each angle is
∴
∴
∴
∴ m = 162
∴ The measure of one angle of a regular convex 20-gon is 162°
This question is incomplete because it lacks the diagram of the right angled triangle. Find attached to this answer the diagram of the right angle triangle.
Answer:
d-50
Step-by-step explanation:
Looking at the attached diagram, the only way to solve for this is the use of the trigonometric function. The trigonometric function to be used is the cosine function.
From the diagram, we are given
Hypotenuse = AB = 14
Adjacent = AC = 9
The measure of angle A to the nearest degree is calculated as:
cos θ = Adjacent / Hypothenuse
cos θ = 9/14
θ = cos -¹ (9/14) or arccos(9/14)
θ = 49.994799115°
To the nearest degree = 50°
Therefore,the measure of angle A to the nearest degree = 50°
